Weighing custom field

    Hi,

    How would you make the contents of a custom field weigh heavier? I saw how to make a specific matching term weigh heavier with the filter hooks, but I can’t figure out how to increase the weight of the field itself, similar to the way you can make title/categories/etc. weigh heavier in the Relevanssi settings.

    Thank you in advance! Now that I’m starting to figure out the weight thing my search results are spot-on. ??

    This is one of the things that are slightly harder to do. 

    add_filter('relevanssi_match', 'rlv_custom_field_boost');
function rlv_custom_field_boost($match) {
    if ($match->customfield > 0) $match->weight = $match->weight * 10;
    return $match;
}

    This function will increase the weight of all custom fields. If you want to boost a specific custom field, that information doesn’t really exist in free Relevanssi. Relevanssi Premium includes a field $match->customfield_detail which tells you which custom field matched the search.

    Thank you! That worked great.
