Search Tips   |   Advanced Search

 

By default, Member Manager requires users to enter a minimum of two characters when using the Directory Search window to search the organization directory for names. This limit is not appropriate for all languages. By modifying the pickersettings.properties file, we can lower the limit to one character.

Perform the following steps:

  1. Edit...

    portal_server_root/shared/app/lotusworkplacelib/pickersettings.properties

  2. Change the 2 at the end of the following line to a 1:

    people.view.1=WMM.1,
    com.ibm.workplace.people.picker.data.value.service,
    str.directory.name.wmm,
    com.ibm.wkplc.people.picker.workspace.WmmPickerAdapterFactory,50,2

  3. Save the properties file.

  4. Restart the portal server.
