Solr - Can't get Field Boosts to work with Date Function
In Solr, I have a date function to boost more recent records and multiply by a few custom variables. This works fine:
{!boost b=product(.5,sum(div(max(s
I now want to boost a field in conjunction with my query, but the field boost (qf=title^3) does not seem to do anything with my query above. When I remove the formula from my query and just search q=apples, then the (qf=title^3) boost DOES work. Does anyone know why these aren't working in conjunction? Thanks -

I've tried setting the title field type as text and string but can't get the desired result. I've tried putting my title field it in the 'text' copy field and it's own field, and also tried removing it from the 'text' copy field, thinking that it would boost more, and am having no luck.
I need to be able to search multiple terms and single words. If an exact match is found in title, I want that record to be returned 1st. I've tried the query below, searching for title "crazy shoes". It's actually being returned 9th out of 9 records.
When I put the title in quotes, Solr does find it, but it then does not tokenize obviously, and only returns the one record. I'd like it to return all 9 records, with the title "crazy shoes" first. Is there some way I should be doing both?

Thanks for the help so far. I can award the points and break off a new thread if needed, because I now have follow-up questions, so let me know.
I've followed your suggestion and created a separate string field for track_title_str, and am trying to use the q.alt to query this with my search terms in quotes. I'm then trying to boost that field (heavily in this example), but it doesn't seem to work.
