Advanced search Release 1.1

ell

Hello

I have installed release 1.1 and I have configured Alfresco to support new content types.

How can I configure the Advanced Search screen so that I can search on Metadata? Is there any documentation?

Is it possible to search on multiple categories?

The documentation on configuring the Advanced Search screen to search meta-data can be found here:

Hi Kev

Thank you very much for your response.

Just a couple of questions:
1. Can we configure the application so that in the additional options area we display only the properties related to a selected type.

2. Can we use something like the displayLableID so that the displayed name is consistent to the one in edit properties screen
<meta-data type="cm:dictionaryModel" property="cm:modelAuthor" />

3. Can we search on multiple categories?

Regards

1. You can add attributes for any type by setting up the custom attributes config as per the wiki docs. They will always be shown, they is not currently a way to change what's displayed dynamically based on user selection of a type.

2. DisplaylabelId support for that piece of configuration didn't make it into the 1.1 release unfortuntely. I plan to add that this week and therefore it will make it into the nightly build shortly. Currently it takes the label from the data-dictionary model XML.

3. Not a present no, again that feature didn't make it into 1.1 but will definitely make a future release.

Thanks,

Kevin

I have implemented item 2 - displayLabelId support. It will be available in the next release and next nightly build!

Thanks,

Thank you very much Kevin. What are the files that implement the changes?

At the moment every time I get a new release I manually replace all the files I have configured for my stuff. It takes a long time

Is there a more efficient way to integrate with the Alfresco code.
How do other people do it?

Any advice will be very helpful

cheers

The following SVN commit fixes the issue:

We are looking at ways to make it easier to upgrade versions of Alfresco, i agree at the moment it is too manual a process.

Thanks,

Hello Kevin

Is there a JIRA number for point one?

There isn't no. I'll create one.

Hi Kevin

I have downloaded release 1.2.ORC1
I am trying to configure it to support my own content types and metadata.
Do I follow the instructions as per previous releases?

Well I actually tried and I didn't have any luck.
Not sure if I have done a mistake in the XML files or if I should follow different istructions in order to configure the application.

Regards

Lilly

Hello,

Yes for RC1 the instructions are the same. Can you post the snippet of XML you used so we can check it?

Thanks,

Kevin
