Hi, I'm running into some issues with solr scoring affecting ordering of query results. Is it possible to run a Solr boolean query to check if a document contains any search terms and get the results back without any scoring mechanism besides presence or absence of any of the search terms? Basically I'd like to turn off tf-idf/Vector space scoring for one query and get the ordering by boolean instead of score.
As an example, suppose I have a collection of wholesale providers and some of the wholesale providers are preferred over other providers. I'd like Solr to get all the preferred providers, apply an ordering then get all the non-preferred providers and apply an ordering. (i.e. give me a group of preferred providers and apply a sort to the preferred provider result set and group non-preferred provider and sort that result set) The preferred status of the provider is not known ahead of time until query execution. Can you give us a lead on this? Thank you! Regards, Vijay
