Use the search seedlist 1.0 format
Web Content Manager supports search seedlist 1.0 format by default. Search seedlist 1.0 provides:
- Use the web content page type to render content found in the search results on the corresponding web content page.
- Include custom metadata fields from a web content item that appear in the search seedlist but not in the HTML source.
- Search within a specific library or site area, across all web content libraries, or across a list of libraries.
- Perform incremental crawling of libraries for faster seedlist processing. With incremental crawling, when a crawl requests new items, only items that have been added, changed, or deleted since the previous crawl are retrieved.
The syntax of the seedlist URL has changed with seedlist format 1.0. Older search collections created using seedlist format 0.9 cannot be reused or migrated to the new format. Be sure that you index all the content again after updating the WCM seedlist format from 0.9 to 1.0.
Search seedlist 1.0 can make access control information available in a way that makes pre-filtering of contents possible. Pre-filtering provides the fastest filtering approach because it takes place in the search index level. An additional advantage of pre-filtering is that remote secured content sources can be searched from the portal. The filtering mode is defined as part of the search service configuration parameters.
The seedlist should only be used for search. For example, do not use the seedlist as an alternative logging method. For the purposes of event logging, the Java messenging service (JMS) should be used.
