Create Boost Rules
Boost rules allow you to add FieldText to queries to IDOL Server. For example, if a user searches for televisions, you can add FieldText to the query that boosts results for a particular brand of television.
The table shows all the fields that you must include in the IDX file for boost rules.
NOTE: You must add any fields that are referenced in the FieldText expressions to the document as empty fields.
