Question

when i do a standard search it just search for one field type.

$results = $solr->search($query, $offset, $limit);

when i try this:

$params = array('qf' => 'threads.title posts.body');
$results = $solr->search($query, $offset, $limit, $params);

it still doesnt work.

any idea?

I think that to search in multiple fields you should do something like this:

$results = $solr->search('threads.title:'.$query.' OR posts.body:'.$query, $offset, $limit, $params);

To search efficiently you should define index on these two fields joined together and search in that index.
