How to Modify Search URL's in Forums?

OK, this has been plaguing me for a while now, but had time on my hands, so will ask for some assistance from the forum gurus here.
Problem:
I use the Forum Search (yeah, I know that the name could be better... ), to locate many articles to link to. In most cases, I know the exact Search keyword to use, but I then have an issue - the URL provided for the article is almost always pointing way down a long thread. That can be useful sometimes, but I want to get the URL for the beginning of those threads, to make it easier for others (especially new users) to get the thread from the beginning, and not at the end, or even the middle. Even when the Search keyword is in the title, and also in the OP, the Adobe Forum Search always dumps me at the end of the thread, or at best, the middle - never at the beginning.
Here is an example:
Search in Premiere Elements Tips & Tricks Forum for keyword "resources." I get http://forums.adobe.com/message/3953827#3953827, which is about the middle of that thread. The word "Resources" is used in the title, and also the OP (mine), but I do not get it, until down the thread. The Search function seems to overlook the first several uses of the word, and I get the URL for the Re:. This is the URL that I want: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/800455?tstart=0.
What do I need to do, to get that ____start=0 ?
Appreciated,
Hunt

Bill,
Actually, it is sometimes possible to get to the thread URL in another way, but I am afraid it is no less silly.
1) Make the search (Ask the Question) and get to wherever in the thread;
2) Go to the top (if needed) and Click [the OP], then click [the OP]'s Stuff and see whether the thread is still in the list without Re: at the start.
That will give the thread URL (without the ?tstart=0, though), as in this case http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1405227, which is viable in itself; you may add the ?tstart=0.
I just made it before it went off the list.

How do I search in a single forum!?

I wanted to search for something within the "Compressor 4" community, but it doesn't seem like the new 'discussions' site allows you to search within a specific forum. All I see is the 'search communities' bar in the top right. How do I only search within 'Compressor 4'?

Type in your search, then under More options, click that link and Type in "Compressor" into the box marked:
Restrict to a Community: In order to limit it to that Community

How do I search just the Dreamweaver forums?

Hi all,
I must be crazy but I can't seem to see how to search just the Dreamweaver forums. Two search fields, one for all adobe.com and one for searching all forums but no option to search only this one?
David

Hi,
sorry, I misunderstood. Now, what I do is when I want to search in the DW forum only, I start my search with the word "dreamweaver" an let it follow with the searched terms.
If you cannot live with that, you could your "link in that group that said "Search this forum" might be ..." serve as suggestion to
https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform, where you can "Use this form to request new features or suggest modifications to existing features."

How to modify search query based on new FE

Hi,
As per a requirement, in All Accounts search (advanced search section), I had to replace 5 checkboxes (e.g. Role1, Role2, Role3, Role4, Role5) by a single dropdown (codelist) name= "Account_Roles" containing same values (Role1, Role2, Role3, Role4, Role5). I created Customer's XBO and declared field of the codelist type, name= "Account_Roles". So, the XBO now has below 6 fields :
Role1, Role2, Role3, Role4, Role5 (type = Indicator)
Account_Roles (type = codelist)
Existing search on All Accounts worked on the 5 checboxes and fetched those accounts for which the values matched.
E.g.
If in search parameters, I check Role1 & Role2, and for Account1, these values are stored as "true", then Account1 will be shown in the result list.
Now the search UI doesn't have the checkboxes, but codelist ('Account_Roles') which can have value 'Role1'/'Role2'/'Role3'/'Role4'/'Role5' or combinations are also possible like 'Role1' OR 'Role2', etc..
My question here is -
Will the old search query that worked on indicator fields earlier, handle the new FE "Account_Roles" automatically ?
If not, then will modification be required to existing search query ?
If modification is required, what steps I need to follow to handle this new field instead of checkboxes.
I need exact steps to modify a search query, as I tried several things in the PDI but was not able to confirm if this requirement can be implemented by modifying search query or it is not feasible from PDI perspective.
Appreciate all your inputs.
Thanks,
Sachin.

Hi,
you can create a link between the vendor objects itself, means link 0vendor with 0ven_compc and 0ven_purorg. This should give you a list of all vendors multiplied with the comp codes multiplied with the purch. org. May be here it is possible to create another link between a attribute (eg. comp_code of 0ven_purorg with comp_code of 0ven_compc). In case it is not possible you need to add this link information somehow. Another option might be to create 2 queries. One on a infoset of 0vendor and 0ven_purorg and another one on 0vendor and 0ven_compc.

How to modified a URL showed in a Render phase from the Action phase.

Hi all,
I have a problem with a URL showed when I pass from action phase to render phase. Next I explain that problem.
I'm using a Weblogic Portal 10.3., Java Portlet and Spring. My portlet contains two controllers (A and B). The controller A receive an action and depending of a parameter, shows a viewA (which is managed by A controller) or viewB (managed by B controller). To do that I use a ParameterHandlerMapping of SpringFramework, which if an action parameter is A, the portlet use Controller A and use controller B if an action parameter is B.
Next I show you a Controller A method which receive an action:
@ActionMapping(params={"action=A","execAction=redirection","pg"})
public void accionIrFichaDispositivo(ActionRequest req, ActionResponse resp,
@ModelAttribute("listadoVozForm") ListadoVozForm form,
@RequestParam("pg") String paramPg) throws PortletException, IOException{
if(pg.equals("Hola")){
}else{
resp.setRenderParameter("action", "B");
In a Render Phase, which is managed by Controller B, the URL contains the value of action parameter: action=A.
How can I modified that action parameter to show action=B?..
Regards..

Hello,
What you are seeing is the expected behavior; the URL in the browser will be the action URL (with action=A) even though the portlet is setting a render parameter action=B in the action phase. There's nothing "wrong" with this; the "B" controller will get run because the render parameter "action=B" exists, even though it isn't what is displayed in the browser. In general, it is best to not be concerned about what parameters are in the browser's URL, as the portal framework is managing all the parameters for you on the server-side.
If you really want the browser's displayed URL to not be the action URL, there is a feature built in to WLP 10.3.2 and later versions which will cause the browser to do a redirect to the render URL just after the action phase runs. This will make the browser display the "action=B" in the URL, but the redirect will also double the number of requests the server must handle, so consider if you really need the browser's URL to display the current render URL. To turn this feature on, modify the entry for your portlet in the WEB-INF/portlet.xml file to add a container runtime option "com.oracle.portlet.redirectAfterAction", like this:
    <portlet>
        <portlet-name>sampleRedirectAfterAction</portlet-name>
        <portlet-class>
            portlets.jsr286.SampleRedirectAfterAction
        </portlet-class>
        <supports>
            <mime-type>text/html</mime-type>
            <portlet-mode>view</portlet-mode>
        </supports>
        <portlet-info>
            <title>Redirect After Action Sample</title>
        </portlet-info>
        <container-runtime-option>
            <name>com.oracle.portlet.redirectAfterAction</name>
            <value>true</value>
        </container-runtime-option>
        <container-runtime-option>
            <name>com.oracle.portlet.suppressWsrpOptimisticRender</name>
            <value>true</value>
        </container-runtime-option>
    </portlet>The "suppressWsrpOptimisticRender" runtime option is recommended as a performance enhancement for any portlets being run over WSRP which also have the "redirectAfterAction" option, however, if you are running your portlets over WSRP you won't be seeing the render parameters in the browser's URL in any recognizable form anyway.

How to Modify Search for Leads using Date types in the Assgmnt Block Date

Hello Experts,
I have a requirement to modify the search for Leads using Dates in the Assignment Block Dates and using the Posting Date of the transaction.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance,
Justin

If you look at the grants, you'll see that there are over 170 objects from the FLOWS_030000 granted to PUBLIC:
SQL> select count(*) from dba_tab_privs where owner= 'FLOWS_030000' and grantee = 'PUBLIC';
173
If we were go grant these privileges to a role, called APEX_APP_RU, and grant this role to APEX_PUBLIC_USER and any schemas an application is linked to (Workspace to Schema), would that be a workable solution?
The only problem I see right off hand that this might not work is that PUBLIC has synonyms created for the FLOWS_030000 objects. If we revoke the underlying privileges, because of the synonyms, this might not work.
SQL> select COUNT(*) from dba_synonyms where table_owner = 'FLOWS_030000' and owner = 'PUBLIC';
176
Does anyone else have any ideas?

How do you search this forum?

The interface here is maddening. How do i search just the FlashBuilder forum?

If you click the magnifying glass (I know it'll search for "Search Forums") but it'll get you to the right page.
Then under the main search heading you'll see a little green "+" sign with the text "More Options" that will pop down all the forums.
Flash Builder is a sub-forum of "Adobe Labs" (I found if you drag the scroller about half way down you'll get there).
There is a ton of sub forums though, man, I can see how you were frustrated!

How to modify the search results of the GUI for subscribing to calendars

How to modify the search results of the GUI for subscribing to calendars
Note:
<OL>
<LI>The following information applies only to iPlanet Calendar Server 5.0
Patch 3.
<LI>All of the cases for which the XSLT changes will work have not been
verified.
<LI>The following is only an example of an XSLT customization.
</OL>
The example below shows a sample customization of the
search_for_calendars
dialog. This customization will result in the Display Name being included as
part of the search results in the GUI, which would normally show just the
calendar ID. It will render the returned calendars in the following format:
<P>
Display Name - <I>description</I>
<P>
Normally, the format would be as follows:
<P>
Calendar-ID - <I>description</I>
<P>

The example consists of the following two files:

How To Modify Interactive Report Search Input?

Hello All,
I am running version 3.2 and attempting to modify (validate) the search input value on an interactive report. For example, after a user enters a string in the search textbox, I want to strip any space characters from the string and perform other operations as needed.
I have attempted to use javascript and PL/SQL page processing, but have been unsuccessful with either. I can not figure out how to modify the javascript function called for submitting the page and the on submit page processes don't fire for interactive report pages.

Hello Mark,
The search item is called "apexir_SEARCH".
Using jQuery you can add a onblur function to that field:
$(function(){
// Add an onblur function to the Search field
$("#apexir_SEARCH").attr("onblur",'clearField(this)');
function clearField( pThis ){
//Do your thing here.

In List, How to modify the Link in Quick Edit Mode?

In List, How to modify the Edit in Quic Mode Link? Instead of opening Quick view mode, to open in InfoPath customized form?

Hi Eugene,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to midify the link of "Edit" and set it linking to a InfoPath Form which can bulk edit your List.
You can use the code above to modify the Edit's hyperlink and set it linking to your InfoPath form.
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.10.2.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#idHomePageNewItem").next("a").attr("href","the URL of your InfoPath form");
$("#idHomePageNewItem").next("a").removeAttr("onclick");
</script>
For more information about bulk updating a SharePoint list using InfoPath form, you can have a look at the blog:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sharepoint/en-US/c05983fc-d992-49ff-8d18-fa8f70777d66/using-infopath-2010-to-bulk-update-a-sharepoint-list?forum=sharepointcustomizationprevious
