simple search using meta-data (title, author)

bvsoest — Thu, 10 May 2007 11:44:46 GMT

Hi,I'm trying to get the Alfresco's simple search to find documents based on meta-data like title and author. I modified contentModel.xml and re-started Alfresco. Still not working! Hope you can help me with this one.Regards, Berno. <aspect name="cm:titled"> <title>Titled<

By default the Simple Search only finds items based on cm:name and full-text. However I recently commited a change (from an external contributor) that allows the configuration of additional attributes in simple search:
http://issues.alfresco.com/browse/AWC-452

It will be in the nightly build, HEAD code or you can wait for 2.1 release if you prefer.

Thanks,

Kevin

Thanks Kevin,

Would configuring extra attibutes for simple search work the way I tried to in contentModel.xml?

Thanks, Berno

No you have not configured them to be used in simple search by default (which is not possible from contentModel.xml) just to ensure that they are indexed etc.

Thanks,
