Hello All,
I want to boost certain products on particular keywords. for this i am
using solr's indexing time boosting feature. i have given index time
boosting with "1.0" value to all documents in my solr indices. now what i
am doing is when user want to boost certain product i just increase index
time boosting value to 10.0 of that particular product only. now the
problem is: i have also used query time boosting (for boosting documents
when searched term found directly in title field) and so even i have
increase the indexing time boosting value of the particular product it
appears after query time boosted product.
consider following example:
- I have indexed couple document related to mobile phone (nokia,samsung and
so on)
- All the documents contains the title field which contains following value
*Doc1:*
*==*
<doc boost="1.0">
<id>122</id>
<titleName>Nokia Phone 2610 </titleName>
<description>Suprb phone</description>
..
</otherField>
</doc>
*Doc2: *
* ==*
<doc boost="1.0">
<id>123
<titleName>Samsung smwer233</titleName>
<description>Samsung phone</description>
..
</otherfield>
</doc>
- now if some one searches for "Phone" it will display first "Nokia Phone"
second "Samsung Phone" (by searching in <titleName> and <description> field)
- to display "Samsung" before "Nokia" i have boost the index time value ,
some thing like below
<doc boost="5.0">
<id>123 </id>
<titleName>Samsung smwer233</titleName>
<description>Samsung phone</description>
..
</otherfield>
</doc>
- i am also using boosting at query time to boost the document which has
found terms in <titleName> field
*"titleName:phone^4"*
now even though i have higher boosting in samsung mobile it displays nokia
mobile first and then samsung mobile.
can any one please guide how can i boost particular document using index
time boosting(it should appear first even though i am applying query time
boosting).
Many Thanks,
Dhaivat Dave
