Can the free text search match all terms
I know that this a very old thread but I had a difficult time finding the answer to this same question. So I'm posting it here as this was the only thread I found while searching, hopefully when someone else finds this thread as I did, they'll get the answer.
Essentially we want to "AND" the search terms instead of the default "OR".
The way to do this is to use the "WithAndAsDefaultOperator()"-method after a method that returns an IQueriedSearch<T>, which For() does.
For example:
SearchClient.Search<AClass>()
.For("cottages belfast")
.WithAndAsDefaultOperator();
This will only return results that match both "cottages" and "belfast".

Can the free text search as detailed here
http://world.episerver.com/Documentation/Items/Developers-Guide/EPiServer-Find/8/DotNET-Client-API/Searching/Free-text-search/
be configured to match all the terms (minus stop words used) - as detailed in the improving precision part of theelastic search document here
http://www.elasticsearch.org/guide/en/elasticsearch/guide/current/match-multi-word.html
For instance if I do a search for cottages in belfast it returns a tonne of results with just cottages that we don't want to see
Many Thanks
