Hi, Can anybody help me to resolve an issues with solr search relevancy. Problem is that when somebody search "Bank", it displays some other business related to this phrase. For Eg it shows "Blood bank" and "Power bank" as the first results. To resolve this, we implemented the proximity search at the end of the phrase for getting the relevancy and boost the field.This eliminate the issue in search, and irrelevant results goes down to the last sections For Eg : When a user search "Bank" he gets banks on the top results, not the "Blood banks".This resolved with proximity in phrases and boosting.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12070016/solr-how-to-boost-score-for-early-matches http://localhost:8983/solr/localbusiness/select?q=((name :"bank")^300+OR+((categoryPrefixed:"_CATEGORY_PREFIXED_+bank"~1)^300+AND+(categoryPrefixed:"_CATEGORY_PREFIXED_+bank"~2)^200+AND+(categoryPrefixed:"_CATEGORY_PREFIXED_+bank"~3)^100)+OR+ (tag:"bank")^30+OR+(address:"bank")^5) &start=0&rows=10&wt=json&indent=true But the actual problem occurred when we sort the search result. There is a specific requirement from client that the "Premium" listings should display as top results.For that we have field packageWeight in solr schema with values like 10, 20, 30 for free, basic and premium consecutively. <field name="packageWeight" type="int" stored="true" indexed="true" required="true" /> <!-- Used for sorting --> And now when we perform this sorting, we get some irrelevant results to top, but its Premium listing. How this happened is that In solr schema, there is a field "tag". A tag is a small summary or words that used related to the business and can be implemented to provide a quick overview of the business. When a search perform based on "Tag" which is comparatively very low boost. <field name="tag" type="text_searchable" stored="true" indexed="true" required="false" multiValued="true" omitNorms="false" omitTermFreqAndPositions="false" /> In solr doc, there is a premium business named "Mobile Store" and which is tagged with a keyword "Power Bank". When we search "Bank" without sorting we are getting relevant results first. But when we sort result with field packageWeight, this doc comes first. Is there any way to resolve this issue?? Or at least is there any way to remove certain fields from the sort, but not from search.
