The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Using CATEGORY with CFSEARCH returns no values.  Using it without works...

Asked by krugar77 in ColdFusion Application Server

Tags: cfsearch, category

I am a little perplexed by this and I must be doing something wrong. I am running CFMX7 on RE4 if that helps.

I have created several verity collections and enabled category support for them. I have indexed my content and by doing a dump can see I have 46 records and that my categories are set properly.

When I do a cfsearch and include category=xxx I get zero results.

When I do a cfsearch and DO NOT include the category tag I get results.

Even at the most simplistic programming level it doesnt work. Here is a basic idea of what I am trying to do:

=====returns no results======
<cfsearch collection="meetings_data" name="get_info" criteria="hotel" category="boston">

<cfoutput>
#get_info.summary#<br>
</cfoutput>

<cfdump var="#get_info #">

=====returns 1 results======
<cfsearch collection="meetings_data" name="get_info" criteria="hotel">

<cfoutput>
#get_info.summary#<br>
</cfoutput>

<cfdump var="#get_info #">

The dump does show that the CATEGORY for the record is boston. I dont get it. I must be missing something simple.
