In our compass mapping, we're boosting "better" documents to push them up in the list of search results. Something like this:
<boost name="boostFactor" default="1.0"/>
<property name="name"><meta-data>name</meta-data></property>
While this works fine for fulltext search, it does not when doing a field search, e.g. the boost is ignored when searching something like
name:Peter
Is there any way to enable boosting for field searches? Thanks for your help and sorry if this is a dumb question - I am new to Lucene/Compass.
Best regards, Peter
