Sort order

The search results are listed/sorted by hit points (relevance) if no specific sort order is set. The hit points are calculated by the search engine and depend on how important the search query is in relation to the documents found. The calculation of the points depends on many factors and correlations, but the most crucial aspects are:

  • how many times the search word is included in the text
  • how early in the text the search word is
  • how much of the text the search word is (the search word ranks higher in a short text than a long text)
  • how the index field in which the search word appears is prioritised
  • how the hits are prioritised
  • If you want to deviate from the relevance sort order (i.e. "best" hits first), you can specify which field(s) this module should use as standard.
