OK, I've narrowed it down a bit. I can recreate the behaviour with this (I am
sending to the /query endpoint, not /select). We are sending the selected
checkboxes as filters (fq in /select lingo, I guess).
===
{
"query": "dyr",
"filter": [
"work.subject_docval:(\"uddøde dyr\" \"forhistoriske dyr\")",
"doc_type:work"
],
"fields": "work.workid work.title work.creator work.subject_dbc score",
"offset": 0,
"limit": 100,
"params": {
"defType": "edismax",
"qf": [
"work.creator",
"work.title",
],
"sort": "score desc",
"debug": true
"indent": true
}
}
===
This query has the first book with both those subjects as the 10th result in
the list. If I move that clause from "filter" to "q", the ordering of the
result has books with both subjects at the top of the list.
===
{
"query": "dyr AND work.subject_docval:(\"uddøde dyr\" \"forhistoriske
dyr\")",
"filter": [
"doc_type:work"
],
"fields": "work.workid work.title work.creator work.subject_dbc score",
"offset": 0,
"limit": 100,
"params": {
"defType": "edismax",
"qf": [
"work.creator",
"work.title",
],
"sort": "score desc"
}
}
===
Is that intended behaviour?

Emne: Sv: Ranking based on number of OR clauses matched
Hi Alex, thanks for responding so quickly.
I guess (but I'll need to verify) the issue is that we boost on some other
things by default. Thigs like how often has stuff been loaned, how many copies
are there in the libraries. That seems to (but again, I'll need to make some
experiments to verify) take priority over how many OR clauses from one of the
fqs that are matched. That makes sense, but I wonder if there is a way to work
around that?

Hi Noah,
That's pretty much the default if you go with a pure boolean query!
Do you see a different behaviour?
What is your query?
Cheers
