For search interfaces that allow cross-field matches and have a Field module, you can configure the static score assigned to cross-field matches by the Field module on an individual search interface.
You might do this if you considered cross-field matches better than description-only matches.
Such a search interface would appear similar to this example in the Search Interface editor:
In the example, note the presence of the <<CROSS-FIELD>>
indexator in the Selected Members list. This indexator is present only in search interfaces with Always or On Failure cross-field matches and a ranking strategy that includes a Field module.
