Custom Sorting Based on Relevancy

[David Giffin]

Hi There,

I'm working on a sorting issue. Our site currently sorts by creation
date descending, so users list similar products multiple times to show
up at the top of the results. When sorting based on score, we want to
move items by the same user with the same title down search
results. It would be best if the first item stayed in place based on
score, and each additional item is moved out (rows * repeated
user/title).

Is custom sorting the best way? or is there something else I'm not
thinking about. At the moment I'm looking at doing roughly the
opposite of the Query Elevate Search component.

Thanks,
David

Or you could collapse search results with SOLR-236.
