How can I tell if the stop words is resolved? This is what I get when I turn
debugging on:
http://apaste.info/0Uz http://apaste.info/0Uz
When I put:
q=title:(what if) OR title:what if^10
I get this:
rawquerystring: title:(what if) OR title:\what if\^10,
querystring: title:(what if) OR
Edit:
I filtered my query to author:randall so I could see the score that it's
getting from the query. This is the score of the record that contains what
if:
score: 0.004032644
The other two books are getting this score:
score: 0.0069850935
So... the boost is obviously not hitting that record. I
The other ones are still rating higher. I think it's because the other two
titles contain what 3 times.. the more it says what, the higher it scores.
I'm not sure what else can be done. Does anybody else have any ideas?

So what happens if you increase the boost to 100? or 20?
The problem is that boosting will always be more art than science.
What about the other 3 possibilities I mentioned?
Basically, you have to tweak things to fit your corpus, and it's often
an empirically determined thing.

First thing is add debug=query to the URL and see what the parsed
form of the query is to be sure the stop words issue is resolved.
Once that's determined, add the phrase with a high boost, something like
q=title:(what if) OR title:what if^10
where the boost factor is TBD.
Or add the title
