I looked at that, elevate is a way to boost particular documents based on query terms used. I was thinking in a more general sense... For instance, when google displays search results, the 4th result (typically) are news results, then you tube results come in at another fixed position or better... This is not based on query term, but appears to be based on a "document type" meta-data field. We can certainly create the meta-data in Solr, but I can't seem to figure out how to manipulate the search results to the extent I need.
