Is there a way to replace the suggester in default search boxes?

andrew_lam

Hi,

Is there any way to replace the suggesters used in the default search boxes? For example, the quick search bar at the top right

or the User/Group search bar when adding permissions to a document ?

I tried using the solution in this post as a starting point, but it didn't seem to do anything (https://answers.nuxeo.com/general/q/bd32daf958cc4751a5aa64aa2530a7c6/Remove-user-and-group-suggestion-in-the-search-box-suggestion ). Please let me know if my question is not clear or if there is any more information I can provide to help come up with a solution.

Thank you,

Andrew

Hello,

At the end, there are a lot of different questions in your post:

• To customize the default query triggered from the global search: you can take inspiration from https://github.com/nuxeo/nuxeo-studio-community-cookbook/tree/master/modules/nuxeo/modeler-tips-tricks#override-the-global-search-to-perform-the-search-with-fulltext-analyzer-on-every-property

• You can edit tthe suggestion formatter on every suggestion, like in https://github.com/nuxeo/nuxeo-studio-community-cookbook/tree/master/modules/nuxeo/document-suggestion-result-formatters

• Then, if you want to edit an existing element, you would have generally to:

  • Paste the code of the element from the nuxeo-web-ui repository
  • Copy the code in a new element (that you have renamed)
  • Declare it in your bundle file
  • Make a slot contribution to use the new element

Good luck
