Specifying Weight For Individual Pages?

Using relevanssi_hits_filter filter is the best way – the filter has two parameters: the results and the query. If the query is ‘toast’, you can make sure the post 1002 is first in the results.

Hi Mikko,

I’m a bit surprised. I thought I’d want to use something like this:

add_filter('relevanssi_match', 'custom_tag_weights');

// force a given post ID to top
if($match->doc == 3246)
  $match->weight = $match->weight * 10;

…what’s the difference? Or rather, why is relevanssi_hits_filter a better solution?

Thanks,

That is a good way, too, but adjusting the weights is just a suggestion, while relevanssi_hits_filter lets you modify the order exactly. Of course, if you give enough extra weight, the post will come on top, but with relevanssi_hits_filter, you can place it first, period.
