Portal, V6.1
Configure authoring portlet search
You can change the configuration of the authoring portlet to change how search works.
You edit the following parameters in the WCM ConfigService.properties file in was_profile_root/PortalServer/wcm/config directory to change the way authoring portlet search works.
- wcm.authoringui.advancedsearch.searchonselection =
- If set to true, when you click Advanced Search, an advanced search will automatically be executed based on any text currently entered in the basic search. If nothing has been entered in the basic search, advanced search is not automatically executed.
- If set to false, or not set at all, advanced search will not automatically be executed if there is existing text in the basic search field.
- If not specified, this setting will default to the "false" behavior.
- wcm.authoringui.simplesearch.addstar =
- If set to true, a wildcard character is added to the end of text entered in the basic search. For example, searching for 'Span' will automatically search for 'Span*' and will display search results that have a title, description or keywords that begin with the word 'Span' such as 'Spanish'.
- If set to false, only exact matches to the text entered in the basic search field will be searched for.
- If not specified, this setting will default to the "false" behavior.
