Some types of cartridges enable you to boost or bury a set of records that are contextually relevant to your search results list. You can configure a cartridge to boost or bury records based on specified refinements.
To dynamically boost or bury a set of records, select the By query radio button in the Spotlight Records area of the cartridge. To boost or bury specific records from your catalog, select the Specific records radio button.
Note
Not all templates and cartridges are designed to boost or bury records.
To boost or bury records dynamically:
Check the toolbar and verify that you are working in the correct project.
Select a rule from the Rules section of the navigation tree.
In the Boosted Records pane, select the By Query radio button.
The Select Records dialog displays.
Select one or more refinements in the Narrow Your Results pane.
The refinements appear in the Filtered State box.
Optionally, set a maximum number of records to display using the Number of Records: drop-down.
Optionally, restrict the record results to the current refinement state by selecting Restrict to active refinements.
Selecting Restrict to active refinements uses a combination of the specified refinements and a user's current refinement state to determine which records to display. For example, if you are promoting highly rated camera bags, the record results will vary based on a user's refinement state. If the user has browsed to Bags & Cases> Case Logic, then only top rated bags from Case Logic display. If the user is viewing Bags & Cases > Ricoh, then only top rated bags from Ricoh display.
De-selecting Restrict to active refinements uses only the specified refinements to determine which records display. The user's current refinement state is ignored. For example, if you are promoting top rated camera bags, the record results display the same set of top rated camera bags no matter what the user's refinement state is.
