Dear Wiki user, You have subscribed to a wiki page or wiki category on "Solr Wiki" for change notification.
The "Payloads" page has been changed by BradfordDabbs: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Payloads?action=diff&rev1=2&rev2=3 * Indexing German content, you want to boost all names more than other (capitalized) nouns * You have a product called "Word" and want to boost all occurrences over the lowercase "word" words :) - All these caes may be solved by introducing payloads in your scoring, given you have the client side magic to detect the words. The beauty is that since the boost is stored with the term, you do not need any heavy parsing or calculation query time. All documents originally containing "Word" would surf up higher in your results, even if everything is lowercased both on index and query side. And even if HTML markup is lost after parsing, your parser would already have tagged the titles and boldface words before removing the markup. + All these cases may be solved by introducing payloads in your scoring, given you have the client side magic to detect the words.
