I'm using Solr for searching, and recently started using faceting to allow users to narrow their search. However, once the user filters by one of the facets, the other filter options are no longer returned in the facet results. This is expected, but not what I'd like.
Is there some way to return the facet fields and counts for the unfiltered query, without doing an extra search? For instance, if the user filters by category (by selecting a specific category), I'd like them to still be able to pick one of the other categories without having to explicitly remove the filter first. (That is, all of the categories—and their counts—should still be returned by Solr, so that I can include them on the page along with the filtered query set.)
I suspect this may not be possible. If it isn't I can just do an extra query per search, which would leave out the filter (and return 0 rows), as described in a previous StackOverflow question. But I thought I'd ask: does anyone know a way to do this without multiple queries?
