Thanks Otis, At the moment I have an index of forum messages (each message being a separate doc). Results are displayed on a per message basis, however, I would like to group the results via their thread. Apart from using a facet on the thread title (which would lose relevancy), I cannot see a way of doing this.
So my idea was to build a new index with the thread being the main document entity and a multivalued field for the message data. Using the work done in SOLR-139 I could then update this field as new messages are posted (and any other thread fields such as message count, date of the last post and so on) Without SOLR 139, I would currently have to re-index the whole thread; some threads having thousands of messages which could obviously take some time! :) Am I looking at this from the wrong angle? Have you come across similar scenarios? Thanks for your time, Dave -----Original Message----- From: Otis Gospodnetic [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 24 June 2008 15:33 To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Re: SOLR-139 (Support updateable/modifiable documents) I don't know if SOLR-139 will make it into 1.3, but from your brief description, I'd say you might want to consider a different schema for your data. Stuffing thread messages in the same doc that represents a thread may not be the best choice. Of course, you may have good reasons for doing that, I just don't know them.
