Hi robain.

Enter search terms:

Search results displayed:

Simple, but that was what we needed,

Thanks Olga,

We also needed a custom view on search results. Your post was extremely helpful.

Hi Olga…. very useful customization! I need to do something similar.

Did you package your Web Client customization in a .AMP file? Can you post the .AMP file so I can see the actual source code and modify it for my needs?

Another question: do you believe that it would be possible to call the standard Web Client search result list navigation pages from a custom search page?

In my case, I don't need to have a custom search results page: I'm satisfied with the behaviour of the current Web Client.

But I need to have a custom search page (the Advanced Search page is too complex for my users) that "calls" the standard search results page, after executing the query, to navigate in the search results set.

Do you believe this is possible?

Hi Orbix,

I did not package dialog to .AMP, instead I just archived files into jar and placed it in <alfresco_home>\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\lib

Did you have a chance to implement your custom search?

Thank you,
Olga

HI mialfresco,

I'll send compiled custom-dialog.jar to your e-mail, but actually my first post contains source code and configuration files to recreate it:
1) Compile SearchClinicalDocumentsDialog.java
2) Archive compiled class and configuration files into custom-dialog.jar
3) Place jar file to <alfresco_home>\tomcat\webapps\alfresco\WEB-INF\lib folder

This is the structure of the jar file:

      
> custom-dialog.jar
         > alfresco
            > extension
               > web-client-config-custom.xml
         > META-INF
            > faces-config.xml
            > MANIFEST.MF
         > edu
            > fccc
               > sample
                  > SearchClinicalDocumentsDialog.java
                  > SearchClinicalDocumentsDialog.class
                  > SearchClinicalDocumentsDialog$Node.class
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

My manifest file (the only one missing from the first post):

Manifest-Version: 1.0
Built-By: oltchuva
Class-Path: web-client-config-custom.xml‍‍‍
