I know that only one query of that type does not change anything. But
when it's two or more with different boosts, i hope it does. Here is the
situation:
My docs have "Title" and "Description". What I want to do is to give
more relevancy to the morelikethis on the title than on the description.
So the query would be like this:
query = (words^0.4 in^0.3 the^0.56 title^0.65)^0.70 (words^0.7 in^0.33
the^0.49 description^0.43)^0.30
This way, the words in the title are more relevant than the words in the
description, right?
Thanks!

Is it possible to boost the query that MoreLikeThis returns before
sending it to Solr? I mean, technically is possible, because you can
add a factor to the whole query but...does it make sense? (Remember
that MoreLikeThis can already boosts each term inside the query).
For example, this could be a result of MoreLikeThis (with native
boosting enabled)
queryResultMLT = (this^0.4 is^0.5 a^0.6 query^0.33 of^0.29
morelikethis^0.67)
what I want to do is
queryResulltMLT = (this^0.4 is^0.5 a^0.6 query^0.33 of^0.29
morelikethis^0.67)^0.60 <---(notice the boost of 0.60 for the
whole query)
That last boost wouldn't change the doc ordering at all, so it'd be
kinda useless.
What are you trying to accomplish?
