Hi Sergio, Append '&debugQuery=on' to your queries to learn more about how your queries are being evaluated/ranked.
i.e. qf=attributes_name^15+attributes_brand^10+attributes_category^8&&debugQuery=on You'll get an XML section that is dedicated to debug information. I've found http://explain.solr.pl/ useful in understanding and visualizing the debug output.

My name is Sérgio Alves and I'm a developer in a project that uses solr as its search engine. Right now we're having problems with some common search terms. They return varied results on the search results, and the products which should appear first in the results, are scored lower than other, seemingly unrelated, products. I wanted to know if there is a parameter or any possible way for me to know the way that solr calculates the scores it returns. For example, if we had a search relevancy formula like QF=attributes_name^15+attributes_brand^10+attributes_category^8, how can I know that brand scored 'x', for name 'y' and category 'z'. Is that possible? How can I do that? This is urgent, if someone could take the time and answer this topic to me in a quick manner, I would really appreciate it. Thank you very much for the attention, best regards, Sérgio Alves
