...; 3. Can I still boost certain fields within various models? As the boost for fields is set in your call to acts_as_ferret in the specific model you want to index, there''s no problem setting this in various models.

Hi, Is there a way to pass multi_search separate conditions for each model? -- R. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Hi folks. If I am indexing ModelA and ModelB and I want to search both of them, I usually just pick one arbitrarily and use it for #multi_search. Is there a slicker pattern, regarding from which model to invoke #multi_search? Can it be invoked directly from the Ferret library? Has anyone put together some sort of "dummy" search class? Thanks for any ideas. John

Hello, Lets say you have a few models like Post, Article, Wiki, Comment, And you want to use ferret to search all of them at once. How would I set up the latest acts_as_ferret to accomplish this?
