I am having trouble even getting faces-config.xml custom navigation rules to appear.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>2.&nbsp; Create a custom search dialog with a custom results page showing the custom properties.&nbsp; I have not yet attempted this, as the examples I have seen (one in the "Dr. Q's Workshop" blog) are not doing advanced search, so I don't understand how advanced search properties are passed to the server (e.g., document type, property values, etc.)</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>So, to all who have read this far, a few questions:</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Are these two options the only way to go about what I want to accomplish?&nbsp; Are there other ways I'm not aware of?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any tips, hints, articles I've missed on actually getting custom navigation to work?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Any hints, tips, articles I've missed on how to do a custom advanced search?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Thanks,</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Eric Harper</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Mon, 14 Dec 2009 16:50:41 GMT eharper 2009-12-14T16:50:41Z Customizing advanced search results https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/customizing-advanced-search-results/m-p/217261#M170391 I have a requirement to display custom columns in the search results screen depending on the type of document (customized children of cm:content) searched for.&nbsp; If no custom document type is selected (or the default "content" is selected) in the search, then I will use the standard search results (w Mon, 14 Dec 2009 16:50:41 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/customizing-advanced-search-results/m-p/217261#M170391 eharper 2009-12-14T16:50:41Z Re: Customizing advanced search results https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/customizing-advanced-search-results/m-p/217262#M170392 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>maybe this post can be helpful: </SPAN><A href="http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=12&amp;t=14642&amp;start=0&amp;st=0&amp;sk=t&amp;sd=a" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">http://forums.alfresco.com/en/viewtopic.php?f=12&amp;t=14642&amp;start=0&amp;st=0&amp;sk=t&amp;sd=a</A><SPAN> ?</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>regards </SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>steffen</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Tue, 15 Dec 2009 14:47:33 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/customizing-advanced-search-results/m-p/217262#M170392 steffen 2009-12-15T14:47:33Z Re: Customizing advanced search results https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/customizing-advanced-search-results/m-p/217263#M170393 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><SPAN>Steffen, thanks.&nbsp; I have seen that post, and it describes very well a custom search, but it doesn't cover searching for specific properties or content types, which is what I need to do.</SPAN><BR /><BR /><SPAN>Eric Harper</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Wed, 16 Dec 2009 03:42:19 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-archive/customizing-advanced-search-results/m-p/217263#M170393 eharper 2009-12-16T03:42:19Z
