bq: it is indeed returning documents with only either one of the two query terms
Uhm, this should not be true. What's the output of adding debug=query?
And are you totally sure the above is true and you're just not seeing
the other term in the return? Or that you have a synonyms file that is
somehow making docs match? Or ???
So you're saying you get the exact same number of hits for
name:tv OR name:promotion
and
name:tv AND name:promotion
??? Definitely not expected unless all docs happen to have both these
terms in the name field either through normal input or synonyms etc.
You should need something like:
name:tv OR name:promotion OR (name:tv AND name:promotion)^100
to score all the docs with both terms in the name field higher than just one.
Best,
Erick
