You can use CustomScoreQuery to combine a scalar field value (e.g. like the amount of the paid placement) together with the textual relevancy. You can combine things anyway you want, e.g.
finalScore = textualScore + 1000.0 * scalarValue. Or whatever makes sense. It sounds like you want some kind of step function, where if there is any scalar value, that overwhelms the score. This could do that for you. -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/The-way-to-customize-ranking-tp4002885p4003565.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
