Enable search for web content

We use Portal Search to search for text displayed in web sites created by IBM Web Content Manager.

  1. Indexing web content
    To search for web content, the content must first be indexed by the WebSphere Portal search engine. Once the content has been indexed, we can run searches using the search center or using a search component. If you search for documents in the WebSphere Portal search center, be aware that you see search results for published documents only. Unpublished pending changes in a project are not included in the results.

  2. Configure Web Content Manager search options
    We can edit the following search options to manage how the search service works with Web Content Manager search forms

  3. Optional: Configure Search Center to search for web content
    We can use the Search Center to search for web content by adding a web content search collection to the Search Center.

  4. Crawl web content with search seedlists
    Portal Search supports the use of seedlists to make crawling websites and their metadata more efficient and to provide content owners fine-grained control over how content and metadata are crawled. We can configure the portal to use seedlist support when crawling content generated with IBM Web Content Manager.
