The Portal Search box is included as part of the themes of a portal installation. If you use your own custom themes with the portal and want the users to be able to use the Portal Search box and Search portlet, make sure that the custom themes include the Portal Search box. The code for including the search box in a theme is located in the file...

wps.war/themes/html/IBM /banner_searchControl.jsp

This file is located in the file wps.ear in the directory...

portal_server_root/installableApps

To make the search box available for users in the custom theme, do either of the following:

  • Copy the contents of the file into the custom theme files.
  • Copy the file into the theme and include it directly.
