I''m intending to use acts_as_ferret on one of the sites I''m currently developing... is there any way to do a dynamic kind of boost thing: wherein a user could specify which of certain pieces of information were more important to them, and I could tell it to boost those attributes in the actual search, instead of just declaring it in the model file? -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
