Hi,

I am still not able to find out why I am able to search in some cases and not in some. Though I was able to solve this problem by removing the children from the appearance tag but this is not desirable as I have custom ftl's that are required.

Thanks

Can you please share the share-custom-config.xml with comments for appearance tag?

You need to add your custom type in share-config-custom.xml to work

 
   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Advanced Search">
      <!– advanced search custom attribute config –>
      <!– see http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Advanced_Search_Custom_Attributes –>
      <advanced-search>
         <!– type constraint drop-down –>
         <content-types>
            <!– cm:content type is implicit in this list –>
            <!– types must extend cm:content for display in the Alfresco web-client –>
           <type name="evl:legalDocument" />
            <type name="fm:post" />
         </content-types>
         <folder-types>
            <!– cm:folder type is implicit in this list –>
            <!– types must extend cm:folder for display in the Alfresco web-client –>
            <type name="fm:forums" />
         </folder-types>
      </advanced-search>
   </config>

Hi Netwidz,

I have Advanced Search config tag already in my share-custom-config.xml. My question here is that I am not able to search with fields I have mentioned means when I enter the value to be searched in these fields they return no document.


<!– Advanced Search config section –>
   <config replace="true" evaluator="string-compare" condition="AdvancedSearch">
      <advanced-search>
         <!– Forms for the advanced search type list –>
         <forms>

            <form labelId="type.evl_legalDocument" descriptionId="search.form.desc.evl_legalDocument">evl:legalDocument
            </form>
            <form labelId="search.form.label.cm_content" descriptionId="search.form.desc.cm_content">cm:content
            </form>
            <form labelId="search.form.label.cm_folder" descriptionId="search.form.desc.cm_folder">cm:folder
            </form>

         </forms>
      </advanced-search>
   </config>
