Help on solr more like this functionality

Hi,

We are trying to solve a business problem by performing solr more like this
query. We are able to perform the more like this search. We have a specific
use case that requires different boost on different match fields. Say i do
more like this based on fields title and description of products. I wanna
provide more boost for match field *title *than the description.

Query im trying so far is

mysolrhost:8983/solr/mlt?q=id:UTF8TEST&mlt.fl=title,description&mlt.mindf=1&mlt.mintf=1

Is there any way to provide different boost for title and description?


Many thanks,

Suren.

I don't have much experience on MLT, but index time boosting might help you?
