: My index has a category field and I would like to apply a negative boost
: to certain categories. For example, if I search for "thinkpad", it
: should push results for the laptop bag and other accessory categories to
: the bottom.
: So, I first tried altering the bq field with category:(batteries bags
cables)^0.3.
...
: Is the only way to make this work to postively boost certain categories?
Bingo. you need to boost all products *not* in those categories...
