<p>I'm a Craft newbie, just searching for something and spotted this related post <a href="https://craftcms.stackexchange.com/questions/2376/search-order-score-criteria/13160?noredirect=1#comment17925_13160">Search order &quot;Score&quot; criteria</a></p>

<p>What I would like to know, is there a way to add a Modifier value to a field, like LOW Search does for EE?</p>

<p>For example; lets imagine we want trees listed first.</p>

<p>We would add a 'keyword' field, and a modifier value too help ensure a far higher score than any other fields, possibly including the title.</p>

<p>So an entry with the words 'Top Trees' in our 'keyword' field would trump all other entries containing the words 'Top Trees'.</p>

There currently isn't a native way to do this, and I'm not sure it'd be that easy for a plugin to easily pull off either, since there currently aren't any [search related events](https://craftcms.com/docs/plugins/events-reference) exposed in Craft.

Probably worth adding a [feature request](http://feedback.craftcms.com/search?filter=ideas&query=search) for, though!
