Improve search result scoring to consider weight of recently updated item

    • We collect Confluence feedback from various sources, and we evaluate what we've collected when planning our product roadmap. To understand how this piece of feedback will be reviewed, see our Implementation of New Features Policy.

      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding suggestion.

      There is a request from customer to be able to improve search algorithm so that pages that have been edited recently will get higher weight than those which haven't.

      As described on the following document Ranking of Search Results, there is a weighting of search result based on age. However, it only calculates the age from the creation of the item which means the ranking weights newer item higher but does not take into account the recently edited item.

      Please assess the possibility of improving the ranking of search result as per above condition.

      Thank you and regards,
      Lazuardi

            Hey All,

            A quick update on this.

            I've moved this from Won't Do to Fixed as we made this improvement as part of search improvements in Confluence 8.0.0.

            Hopefully this helps

            Thanks,
