Query Elevation
Query Elevation lets you decide what comes first for a search on your hosted search page. Pin the page that answers best, hide an outdated page for that search, or hide a page from every search. You make the rules on your own search page, on the real results, and see the effect at once.
Turn it on
- Open your index in the Control Panel and go to the WebCrawler tab.
- Click Settings in the Quick Access bar, then open Query Elevation.
- Switch on Enable Query Elevation. A progress bar runs while Opensolr prepares the configuration of your index and reloads it. There is nothing for you to edit.
- When Elevation is active. shows, click Open Search UI. Your search page opens with Pin, Exclude and Exclude All under every result. Use a computer: on narrow screens these buttons are hidden.
Later, the Search UI button in the Quick Access bar of the WebCrawler tab opens the same page, ready for rules.
Switching Enable Query Elevation off asks first, then deletes all pins and exclusions of the index. It cannot be undone.
Make your rules
- Pin a result: put the right page first for a search, in the order you choose.
- Hide a result: for one search, or for every search.
- How the rules work: which searches a rule applies to, where it applies and what deletes it.
The rules apply on your hosted search page and wherever you embedded it. The Opensolr Search module for Drupal and plugin for WordPress keep their own pins and exclusions inside the CMS.
