I already seen that Solr wiki, but I am unable to merge that solution with my query. The example in the wiki gave to search for one string. I tried this, but the date is not sorted order, why? ?q={!boost b=recip(ms(NOW,date),3.16e-11,1,1)}ipad&fl=date How to merge 'title:("ipad")^2' to the above query? thanks Srini -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/How-to-boost-date-field-while-boosting-a-text-field-tp4009455p4010189.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
