Hello,
I need to customize results datatable with searching results. I need to add checkbox to each row and  after perform some actions upon selected nodes (e.g. download, move…).
I am using Alfresco Community 5.0.c.
Any advice would be usefull.
Thank you.

Hi,

We added action handling to search results in later releases (these are in Alfresco 5.0 Enterprise) and will be in the next Community release, but you can view the updates in the latest nightly builds and SVN mirror. However, these were only actions on a each row… we haven't one multiple selection actions yet. One of the reasons for this is that the search APIs return a very small sub-set of node data that doesn't include the action configuration. In the 5.0 Enterprise version when you click on the actions menu the extra data will be asynchronously requested for that particular row.

If you want to implement multiple selection actions then you'd need to download the extra data each time you selected an item. This is possible but is slightly more advanced. I'd recommend you start by looking at what is in the latest version of the code and see if it meets your requirements.

Regards,
Dave
