How do I make Alfresco not to index document content?

Hi

Is there any way to make alfresco not to index the content of a document?

I'm using some types of documents who doesn't need to be indexed by content because users are gonna find them manually in an specific space in alfresco; they will never use the search form to find them.


Thanks

Not really i think. The model is the only place that setting can be changed - and it would affect all docs of say type "cm:content" - which most would derive from.

It is possible you could configure in a content transformer class that purposely returning nothing for specific mimetypes i.e. if the documents you don't want indexed are all of a specific mimetype that it could probably be done, but it would require a custom java class configured in.

Thanks,
