Hi, folks,

Perhaps I'm overlooking an obvious solution to a common desire... I'd like to return a specific document with every query, as the first result. As well, I'd like to have that document be the first result in a *:* query.

I'm looking into index time boosting using the boost attribute on the appropriate doc. I haven't tested this yet, and I'm not sure this would do anything for the *:* queries.

Thanks for any suggested reading or patterns...

Best,
Chris

Chris,

I haven't checked if Elevate Component has an easy way to push a specific doc for *all* queries, but have a look http://wiki.apache.org/solr/QueryElevationComponent

Thanks, Jeevanandam and Otis,

I'll take another look at Elevate. My first attempts did not yield success, as I was not able to find a way to elevate a document with a *:* query. Perhaps I'll try a * query to see what happens.

Cheers,
Chris

That is not a useful test. Users don't look for *:*.

Test with real queries.

Thanks to those who responded. A more thorough reading of the wiki and I see the need for forceElevation=true in the elevate query.

Cheers,
Chris

Chris -

If you have defined 'last-components' in search handler, forceElevation=true may not required.  It gets invoked in search life cycle

<arr name="last-components">
      <str>elevator</str>
</arr>
