Advanced Search Web Part

Hi Everyone,
Does anyone know where I can find the Advanced Search web part in 2013? I have used this web part many times in SharePoint 2007 and 2010 but can't seem to find it in 2013. Did Microsoft remove or rename it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Dan

Hi,
According to your description, you could not find advanced search web part in SharePoint 2013.
For SharePoint 2010, the advanced search web part is in the default page of Search Center.
For SharePoint 2013, the advanced search web part is at the bottom of the search result page.
You may need to search something firstly and then you can see the Advanced Search Option at the bottom of the page.
Feel free to reply if there are still any questions.

In Advanced Search Web Part , more than 5 properties filter cannot be added

In SharePoint 2013 Advanced Search Web Part, Under Add Property restrictions, Maximum number of search filter (AND / OR) is allowed is 5. How can I increase this count ?

Hi,
As I understand, you would like to have more than 5 property filter in Advanced Search web part.
According to this article, it is one of the limitation in OOTB Advanced Search web part: "The property search doesn’t allow the users to specify more than 5 property filters." As workaround, "Reuse the OOTB Advanced Search UI’s hidden controls
that determines the search attributes (ASB_PS_…)". Please refer more information via:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/senthilkumarmani/archive/2010/06/05/custom-advanced-search-metadata-values-pre-populated-for-user-selection.aspx
Also, I find two articles about customizing the advanced search Webpart adding custom properties in case you need:

Advanced search web part issue

hi,
i am implementing a advanced search web part , and in that property restrictions, i have added 2 doument library columns [ not the site columns ]
from my subsite in my site collection.
but when i give some search keywords and perform search, i am not able to get the search results in terms of documents/content.
any extra settings do i need to do for performing advanced search
1) Do i really need site columns to be created under the site collection , in order to be searchable ?
if i create a simple document library column and cant i get it in the crawled properties section
in the central admin's search serv appln's search schema section?
pls advice

As per my understanding you can crawl DL columns
Can you get that document in search results page? Please check to see if the site which contains the library is included in content source.
Could you please check site settings->Site Administration->Searchable columns, maybe the column is excluded?

Go to your Search Service Application in Central Administration.
Click on Metadata Properties in the left navigation.
Click on the Crawled Properties link.
Click on the Categories link then select the SharePoint category
Navigate the pages (next page arrow link) until you see ows_Title. Click on ows_Title.
In the "Mappings to Metadata Properties" area of this page, ensure that the "Include values for this property in the search index" checkbox is checked, then Click OK. This checkbox is not checked by default.
Repeat the same procedure above for your ows_Description crawled property to confirm that it is included in the index - which it should be by default.
Start a Full Crawl
This will now include these crawled properties in the index and should now be available in the Managed Property which exposes them for Search.

Issue in performing search using advanced search web part with any of these keywords.

Hi,
I am implementing advanced search web part, and i have added few columns [ these columns are doc lib columns and NOT site columns ],property restrictions dropdown.
and when i try to search for the documents, contents from the subsites with the applied item from the property restrictions dropdown and with "contains" keyword , and filled-in the "any of these keywords"
textbox,
the search results are not displayed , though there are multiple documents which has the keywords.
am i missing any steps here.? i have ensured that managed properties were created and added in the properties.xml file in the adv.search web part's properties.

hi Steve,
thnx for the reply.
here is my xml file details:
<PropertyDef Name="DocComments" DataType="text" DisplayName="Comments"/>
    <PropertyDef Name="CreatedBy" DataType="text" DisplayName="Created By"/>

      <PropertyRef Name="DisciplineOWSTEXT" />
    </ResultType>
</ResultTypes>
</root>
am using the managedproperties without spaces. the problem is that, when i give the word/words
in the "any of these words" textbox and if i give a value with the "contains" dropdown
its not allwoing me give proper results.
After adding these property restrictions i have done the full crawl again.
@Steven Adnrews: i have done the full crawl, multiple times. Though these columns are NOT created as site columns, it came as managed properties in my Srch Serv.Appln, search schema page.
@Fabian: i am not getting your point.Can you pls tell,where will I see the xsl. i think, the xsl editor and xsl configuration has been replaced by html display templates in SP 2013 Search.

Content Search web part

Hi
Is it possible to filter the CSWP by "Value available in documents".
We are trying to get all excel document which contains text "C:\Documents and Settings".
Thanks in advance,
Hazeq.

Hi,
You can add the following query text in the Content Search web part which will show all Excel files with
phrase "Documents and Settings".
(FileExtension:xls OR FileExtension:xlsx) (IsDocument:"True" OR contentclass:"STS_ListItem") "Documents and Settings"
The reason why we cannot use "C:\Documents and Settings" is because by default most punctuation marks will be ignored when the content get indexed by
Word Breaker. Therefore, there is not a phrase named "C:\Documents and Settings" existed in index file. A workaround is to use "Documents and Settings" phrase.

Content Search Web Part - Result Preview Says "Invalid Request"

This behavior seems to be occurring in both our test and production farms.
ULS logs indicate the following entry:
Exception occured in scope Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Query.SearchExecutor.ExecuteQueries. Exception=Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.InvalidClientQueryException: Invalid request.
at Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.DataConverter.GetObject[T](XmlNode node, ProxyContext proxyContext)
at Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.DataConverter.GetObjectArray[T](XmlNode node, ProxyContext proxyContext)
at Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Query.SearchExecutorServerStub.ExecuteQueries_MethodProxy(SearchExecutor target, XmlNodeList xmlargs, ProxyContext proxyContext)
at Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Query.SearchExecutorServerStub.InvokeMethod(Object target, String methodName, XmlNodeList xmlargs, ProxyContext proxyContext, Boolean& isVoid)
at Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ServerStub.InvokeMethodWithMonitoredScope(Object target, String methodName, XmlNodeList args, ProxyContext proxyContext, Boolean& isVoid)
I have used very simple queries, to see if it's KQL error on our part, such as ContentType:"CType Name"
When we use developer dashboard I can see the XML for the search request which the CSOM is dispatching however, I believe this to be completely out of the box.
Do you have any suggestions as to why the request may be considered invalid and what diagnostics could be run to better isolate why this OOB feature is not working?
We are using Enterprise SP2013 On Prem.
thanks

Aries,
Here is a description of what I see.
1) This is the out of the box (non-customized) CSWP
2) Upon clicking the "Change Query" button on the toolpart the dialog window opens. The Search Result Preview says "This query returned no results" but as per the JSON response above, it appears that there is "ResultTables" present in the response.
Occasionally, a preview-result does show up but this is not consistent. The JSON response seems to be identical.
Initial response - shows "Query returned no results" however, I see results in the JSON below. I have replaced our hostname w/ intranet.contoso.com

This is the KQL. (above)
Next, we immediately click "Test query" without modifying the KQL. We send an XML request using the web part however, in that case, the XML variables are replaced with the $-syntax, this occurred within the web part through no effort of ours. The behavior
shows "Invalid Request"
Can you explain what you mean by "There is customization in the web part"? We have used the out of the box web part.
Any subsequent query modification in the query-builder dialog-window causes the $-syntax. When i illustrated the comparisons of the XML-request above the only difference in between the two requests is that the left-side is created by the initial-load
of the QueryBuilder dialog and the right-side is created when we click "Test query" (immediately after) in the Advanced Mode screen.
We do have a custom master page and I will try to revert back as close as possible to vanilla SharePoint and test. But to address your earlier point, no customization to the Content By Search Web part has been used.

Content Search web Part on Variations label ?

Hello Experts,
I have set up Variations in SharePoint 2013 and its working fine. As of now I have only one Label and in Variations Settings I have selected to "Update web part changes to target web pages when Variations source page is updated".
On Source Label , I added a Content Search Web Part (CSW) to pull the items from a list that is on the top level ( root of the site collection so that query will remain same on all labels), working fine , Now i go to my target site and sync with source and
it is synced successfully. I can see the CSW was also update on the target page but it says "sorry something went wrong". when I edit CSW on the target site , search query from source is also present and it works fine in edit mode when I click on
Test query button , but when I save it or publish target site web part shows same error again" sorry something went wrong" .
Is there some settings missing?
Can someone please confirm if CSW works with variations on labels ?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Resolution : Issue was resolved after creating folder in "Language files" library as mentioned in the link below.
http://richardstk.com/2014/11/18/sharepoint-2013-content-search-web-part-one-or-more-of-the-following-resource-files-failed-to-load/
Still trying to figure out why this happens , every time I create a new label I have to go and create folder manually and paste "CustomStrings.js" file in it. any body knows ??
Thanks.

Content Search Web Part - Sorting not working

I recently tried the new Content Search Web Part for which i see tremendous potential. I wanted to use it to show a certain type of pages and that was not a problem (i added a url as the source where i got the pages from). I mapped the correct fields so
that it showed image, title and modified date. I then tried the advanced mode and told it to sort by the modified date, however any way I tried to apply this sort it just would not save my settings and reverted back to the default sorting. Is there anything
else you need to do to get Sorting to work?
/Anders

I hadn't tried looking with REST, but that's a good suggestion.
In the interim, I found this on TechNet:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj679902.aspx#BKMK_MapCPtoRefinableMP<o:p></o:p>
When you search for a crawled property, you may find two crawled properties
that represent the same content. For example, a site column of type Text named
Color will during crawl discover two crawled properties: ows_Color and
ows_q_TEXT_Color. Crawled properties that begin with either ows_r<four
letter code>, ows_q<four letter code>, or ows_taxId are automatically
created crawled properties. When you select a crawled property to map to a
refinable managed property, make sure that you don't map the automatically
created crawled property. Instead, always map the crawled property that begins
with ows_.
So clearly (as clearly as the doc makes it) I need to use ows_ArticleStartDate. I've made sure that crawled property is the one I'm using, but I'm still not seeing any effect.
As for the sorting model, that only seems to be relevant for Rank sorting, right?

Query anonymous using Content Search Web Part

I'm using the Content Serach Web Part in a template with public access, trying to query list data. It works fine when logged in, but as an anonymous user I get an error with correlation-id 000000000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000. I do have anonymous
access to the list data I query. Also I have added ViewFormPages to the AnonymousPermMask property as suggested, but with no luck.
Anyone know how to search anonymous using the Content Serach Web Part, please share! Thanks in advance.

Please try to break inheritance permission for the anonymous users, and add ‘View Application Pages’ permission for them, it seems that the permission for anonymous users is moved by the lockdown feature, you can use the following PowerShell Script to change
this:
$web = get-spweb "http://yoursiteurl/subweb/subsubweb"
$list = $web.Lists["ListName"]
$list.BreakRoleInheritance($true)
$list.AnonymousPermMask = $list.AnonymousPermMask -bor ([int][Microsoft.SharePoint.SPBasePermissions]::ViewFormPages) #binary or adding the permissions
$list.Update()

Cannot retrieve data from PublishingPageContentOWSHTML in a Content Search Web Part

I tried to display the content of a page using Content Search Web Part, the page is stored in a Pages library and the content type is Article Page. When the data is retrieved in the Content Search Web Part, the page content mapping to PublishingPageContentOWSHTML
is empty, although other data, such as Title and Page Image, can be retrieved. It's very strange that I can do this work correctly for another CSWP web part, that page is stored in a Pages library in another subsite. Both of the CSWP web parts
are on the same publishing site.
Could everybody tell me what I was doing wrong? Thanks you very much in advance.
Newbie to SharePoint.

Hi Albert GSC, I had the same problem. I'm starting now with display templates and after including "'SecondaryFileExtension','ContentTypeId'" at the end of the mso:ManagedPropertyMapping section it worked.
For example, my mso:ManagedPropertyMapping section was (PublishingPageContentOWSHTML returns empty):
<mso:ManagedPropertyMapping msdt:dt="string">
'Picture URL'{URL de la imagen}:'PublishingImage;PictureURL;PictureThumbnailURL',
'Link URL'{Dirección URL del vínculo}:'Path',
'Line 1':'ArticleStartDateOWSDATE',
'Line 2':'Title',
'Line 3':'PublishingPageContentOWSHTML'
</mso:ManagedPropertyMapping>
Then I included "'SecondaryFileExtension','ContentTypeId'" (PublishingPageContentOWSHTML returns its value):
<mso:ManagedPropertyMapping msdt:dt="string">
'Picture URL'{URL de la imagen}:'PublishingImage;PictureURL;PictureThumbnailURL',
'Link URL'{Dirección URL del vínculo}:'Path',
'Line 1':'ArticleStartDateOWSDATE',
'Line 2':'Title',
'Line 3':'PublishingPageContentOWSHTML',
'SecondaryFileExtension','ContentTypeId'
</mso:ManagedPropertyMapping>
Still don't understand why but I'm looking for the reason, until then hope it helps

Control the query of Content By Search web part or a Catalog-Item Reuse web part from JavaScript

Is it possible/supported to intercept and change the query before it gets issued by a Content By Search or Catalog-Item Reuse webpart?
I am writing a multilingual site utilizing cross-site publishing mechanism, and the out-of-box (OOB) web parts would perfectly work if not for the following requirement that I've got: I need to serve location-specific content to the end user. I have several
versions of each content page for each geographical location, and I have tagged the pages accordingly with managed metadata keywords. I also can deduce the user's location from her browser's IP address and store it in a JavaScript variable. It is here
where I am getting stuck: I am trying to change on the fly the queries the web parts issue in order to attach the information about the user's geographical location, unsuccessfully so far.
I cannot rely on server-side code unless it is a cloud-hosted app code. I am about to give up and consider a custom solution alternative instead, which would be relying on Search REST API and custom client-side scripted widgets in place
of the OOB search web parts. This seems like an expensive alternative as the entire site could have been built using the OOB web parts, if not for the location requirement.
I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks in advance,
Ivan.

hi
I would check several directions:
- in query transformation you may add keyword filter "Value of a field on the page". Documentation doesn't clearly says what "field" means here: is it only for site columns, or also may work for UI controls on the page. In second case it would solve your
problem (it would be possible to add hidden field on the page and set value via javascript). But chances that it works like this are not high;
- in the query settings of the Content by search web part there is setting "Loading behavior": Choose whether this query is issued on the server while the page is loading, which is better for your main content, or from the browser after the page appears.
I.e. if you will choose 2nd option there will be a chance to intercept the query on the client side in theory. All of this requires experimenting of course;
- by default Content by search web part sends query to /_vti_bin/client.svc/ProcessQuery with http post from client side (you may check it in fiddler). You may try to find the exact javascript function which performs the call and override it by adding additional
conditions to the query (fortunately it is not complicated in javascript).

How to retrive latest items from different site collection using content search web part

I have a web application that contains two site collections(team site + enterprise wiki), with the following URLs:-
-http://applicationname/teamsite
-http://applicationname/enterprisewik
Now I need to display the latest 10 wiki pages that are inside the enterprise wiki site collection (according to the modified date) inside the team site. So I read that using Content search web part allows for cross-site content query.
So I added a new content search web part , inside my team site, and I click on “change query” button. But I am not sure how I can reference the enterprise wiki site collection's library and to specify that I need to get the latest 10 wiki pages using the
content search web part's query dialog box? Can anyone advice please ?
Thanks

Edit the webpart and click change query in search criteria. click on switch to advanced mode and enter your path:
(path:"http://applicationname/teamsite" OR path:"http://applicationname/enterprisewik")
you can specify sorting by created date and click ok. in number of items to show, type 10. this should fulfill your requirement.

How do I add a search web part to search ONLY a subsite?

I'm trying to add a search web part into a subsite that will search ONLY that specific subsite for documents. Not the entire site collection or anything else. Everything I've looked at doesn't address this specifically. I want a user
to be able to type in a word like "SharePoint" and all it displays is the results for any document in that subsite that has "SharePoint" in the title of the document. I'm assuming that it's not very convoluted to do.

You can use site "search settings" and "search scope" to achieve this , you can use any of these method -
Configure Site settings -> Search settings to default to the contexual scope. This will pass current site url to search results page to filter current site result only.
Use refinement web part on the search results page to filter results from a specific sub-site.
Create a search scope for the subsite , some example here for Sp2010 and 2013-
