There is a misunderstanding here. qf parameter is specific to (e)dismax query parser plugin. For more information about it please see: http://www.lucidimagination.com/blog/2010/05/23/whats-a-dismax/ Your query string can be something like this: defType=dismax&q=b007vty6&qf="id^10 parent_id^9 brand_container_id^8 ... It automatically expands your simple word query to multiple fields. defType=dismax is a must to enable it, either in URL or in solrconfig.xml (defaults section).
