I'm a total Lucene/SOLR newbie, and I'm surprised to see that when there are multiple search terms, term proximity isn't part of the scoring process. Has anyone on the list done custom scoring that weights proximity?

Those are at least 3 different questions. Easiest first, sorting. add &sort=ad_post_date+desc (or asc) for sorting on date, descending or ascending check out how http://www.supermind.org/blog/378/lucene-scoring-for-dummies Lucene scores by default. It might close to what you want. The only thing it isn't doing that you are looking for is the relative distance between keywords in a document. You can add a boost to the ad_title and ad_description fields to make them more important to your search. My guess is, although I haven't done this myself, the default Scoring algorithm can be augmented or replaced with your own. That may be a route to take if you are comfortable with java. -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Can-i-do-relavence-and-sorting-together-t p1516587p1516691.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
