Well I am explaining my problem more in detail. I working with the website http://allevents.in ( It is events discovery and promotion platform) I am applying solr search in this site. So whenever anyone visit this website and search the events for example: "Concerts in London". For that I am using geofilt() function. In that we have to pass our 'sfield' , 'latitude', 'longitude' and 'distance'. So now i don't want to enter the last parameter 'distance'. i.e. I don't want results that are in 'distance' for e.g. 25km aria. So when i search like "Concerts in London" than it should not give me results regarding London only but it should give me the results from all over the world. So in short i want to ask that Is it possible not to define the `distance` parameter ? So I can get my desired results?
