Hi guys,
I have noticed the new "Browse index" functionality. it looks pretty nice and offers additional information.
However, I could see a few improvements to it:
1. Adding new columns to the view is almost imposible, because the browser constantly crashes
2. It would be nice to be able to search for a specific document
3. It would also be nice to be able to reproduce the scoring calculation for a specific keyword (simulate a search and check the results)
The reason I am writing this is because I am trying to figure out how the results are sorted by score after a search.
For example, I have this solution:https://elbi.ignite.commergent.ro/ where I am trying to search for a keyword: priza.
This keyword can be found either as "priza" or as "priză". I have solved the normalization by using a Romanian Analyzer on the product name.
Even with the normalization, search renders the results in a weird order:
Notice that the product with product name starting with the keyword is not seen as more relevant than another product with the keyword inside the ProductName.
I believe that the sorting is right and it is based on the calculated scoring. I just don't understand how the scoring is calculated and how I can control it. I have tried boosting the field and/or the FieldType but I did not get anywhere.
The most important part here is that I cannot explain it to the customer unless I understand it first. That's why I think that the new Browse Index may help in such scenarios.
I am using DW 10.22.8
Thank you,
Adrian
