: show specific results based on a specific field - territory field and : depending on where in the world you're coming from we'd like to show you
: advantage? Is there a way we can hint solr/lucene to use this information to : provide better results? We could use filters on territory or we could use : different indexes for different territories (individually or in a : combination.) Are there any other ways to do this? How do we figure out the : best case in this situation? it depends on your goal .. if you want to show *only* results in that territory then use a filter, if you want results from that territory to score higher, you would augment the query to include a match on the territory as an optional clause ... bq in the dismax handler could do this, or just add to the main query string when using standard request handler -Hoss
