: Hi, Is there a way to force solr/lucene to return a given number of : documents in multiple categories? Facets doesn't seem to be what I want
what you're describing sounds similar to "Field Collapsing" ... https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-236 ...I'm not too familiar with that issue (or it's patch), but the basic idea as i understand it is to limit hte number of results you get back that have a specified field in common when returning results. i'm not positive this is what you're describing since nothing would "force" N results from each category ... just limit each category. -Hoss
