Hi team,

When performing a manual search using the CV Search module the list displayed by default uses a "Relevance" filter for ordering product in the results. I have a scenario where I have 2 products of identical names one in a category 'Old Stock' and 1 in 'New Stock' is there anything I can do to give the items under 'Old Stock' more relevance so they always come to the top of the search results ahead of New Stock? Is relevance just based on the name matching or is there more logic behind it I could manipulate in some way?

Thanks

Hi,

We make an index of all the product data and then pass in the search terms to find all the products that match the search term. It is a weighted search so we order the products by how relevant they are to the search term, we don't expose this logic so you wont be able to manipulate the search results.

Thanks
Nigel.

Hi

What you could do is include the search term more for the old stock so that it ranks higher than the new stock item.

Hey Mark,

Could you elaborate on what you mean by include the search term more? As in repeat it in the summary or something like that?

Hi

Yes just what search term you want to see the old item rank higher for than the new item. Just add that term to the summary or description for example.

Regards

Mark
