Newbie question on sorting

[Jacek <pj...@gmail.com>]

Hello all,

I'm facing this simple problem, yet impossible to resolve for me (I'm a
newbie in Solr).
I need to sort the results by score (it is simple, of course), but then
what I need is to take top 10 results, and re-order it (only those top 10
results) by a date field.
It's not the same as sort=score,creationdate

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated!

Regards,
Jacek

The easiest way is to do that in the app. That is, return the top
10 to the app (by score) then re-order them there. There's nothing
in Solr that I know of that does what you want out of the box.
