OWC PS5 - Content Presenter - Search functionality in custom list template

We have created a custom list template for displaying the contents and use this custom list template in the content presenter task flow.
We would need to implement Search functionality in the custom template.
Any pointers on how to achieve this?
Thanks,
Navaneeth

Sorry to see that this post hasn't had a response from the search team for so long.
1 Search will not find content in portlets (for instance page portlets).
That is correct. The content of portlets may be different for each user so indexing this content can provide misleading results. However, if you only need to index public content, Oracle Ultrasearch can be used to index all portal content, including that displayed through portlets.
2 If Search Results Type in a custom search portlet is set to Pages, the search will be made in page display name, page keywords and page description. It will not search for item content.
Searching for pages checks the following pieces of metadata:
page name & display name
keywords
description
all custom text attributes associated with the page type
all custom url attributes associated with the page type
all custom file attributes associated with the page type
Items will not be searched but again, its possible to index the entire page using Ultrasearch.
3 It is not possible to search for items but get found item's page links as results.
This is incorrect. The custom search portlet allows the administrator to select the attributes that should be displayed from the search portlet's "edit-defaults" screens. From here, its possible to select the "page" attribute to be displayed with the search results. This means that you can search for items and then click on a link to go to the page on which the item resides.
Various improvements have been made for 9.0.4, including better control over the display of page results.

  • Can I add Custom Content Type created programmatically to Custom List Definition?

    I have created Custom content type programmatically in the Feature Receiver. Followed by this have another feature which creates List Template. I want to add the custom content type to the list template.
    Using VS 2012, I added the custom content type to the list definition. The Schema.xml for the list definition looks as below:
    <ContentTypes>
    <ContentTypeRef ID="0x010100D7D9F4B1F4A9684BB44389571024B2EC00C393BB21B8AD7B41B62A87DF0501504D" />
    </ContentTypes>
    ID was automatically added by the VS tool.
    List Template is created, the new content Type is also added, but the Name is displayed as "Document" instead of the custom content type name. So I see two CTs with the name "Document".
    How can I achieve this? Any help is appreciated.

    Hi,
    Please add EnableContentTypes="TRUE" in the <List > tag.

  • Help needed: Search function for custom Repository Manager

    Hi there,
    i'm writing my own Repository Manager for EP 6.0 SP2 PL4.
    I've serious problems getting the search function running. I'm using the 'new', Netweaver-based API.
    I think, there are some general questions to answer:
    - My Repository Manager exposes lots of custom 
       properties to the system. I create the properties
       for example using following code:
       IProperty newProp = new StringSingleValueProperty(
         PropertyName.getPropertyName(
                  "{}" + myAttName),
         myAttVal,                         PropertyFlags.constructFlags(
                  true, false, true, false)
        Is there any convention for the propertie's name?
        I think it has to be written in lowercase only?
        Can I use ANY namespace I want instead of the
        empty default namespace? (For example:
    - After indexing my resources (of course, containing my
       custom properties), the TREX-Monitoring screen for my
       index shows all my custom properties in the 'Document
       Properties' area, but all uppercase chars are escaped
       somewhat. Is this OK?
    - Trying to use the index above to search for particular
       resources in my repository by my custom properties
       fails all the time ('no docs found...'); searching for
       any system property works fine. What's the reason?
    - How can I force the (Property-) search uses my
       custom namespace-manager's methods
       isQueryPropertyNameUnderstood() and
       getQueryBuilder()
       to perform a 'pure' property search by the repository
       manager? It seems that the TREX always handles the
       queries by itself, because my methods are never called.
    Thanx for you help,
    Daniel

    I created a new manager and copied the classes exactly from the "simple" example and I see similar behavior. Actually, when I do this, folders are recursively copied, but not files. Again, browsing and viewing of files work fine. Again, I am not seeing any unexpected exceptions.
    The only thing that changed were the names and namespaces. Nothing else at all was changed.
    This makes me think I am missing some configuration somewhere or there is something special about the example project that the wizards are not creating. The only difference I see in the project file is an additional nature (com.tssap.selena.cmf.PatternNature), but I am not sure that is relevant.
    Wow, I am really stumped.

  • Required field in custom content type not required in custom list instance

    I have an issue with a custom SharePoint 2013 solution. Among other components, it consists of:
    a feature with several custom fields with different types, some of which are taxonomy fields,
    a feature with three custom content types using different sets of the custom fields with partially different configuration, e.g. whether they are required or not,
    a feature with a custom document library template and instance using two of the custom content types and a default picture library that is programmatically customized when the feature is activated, e.g. it is assigned the third custom content type.
    When deploying the solution and activating the feature, everything is set up correctly except a single taxonomy field for one of the doc lib's content types. It is defined to be required in both content types but indeed it does not show up as required for
    the default content type whereas everything works fine for the other. And it does not matter which of the two custom content types is defined first (= default) in the list template's schema.xml, the issue always occurs for the same taxonomy field in the doc
    lib's default content type. When I use the built-in Document content type as default, the field is required for both custom content types. However, using the Document content type is not an option.
    If you think this behavior is not strange enough: When the list content type's field is set required through the SharePoint UI, it becomes optional again when the list column is updated, e.g. its display name is changed.
    Any ideas?

  • Custom list templates not deployed

    Hi everyone,
    Today I came across a wierd issue while creating some lists in SP 2010 programmatically.
    I created a few lists schema, list templates and list instances declaratively.
    I deployed my package and everything seems to work as expected so far.
    I activated my custom feature where (intentionally) I put some C# codes to create a list instance based on one of my deployed list template.
    At first, i.e last week, creating this list instance programmatically worked well.
    So are those I deployed. 
    Today, the creation failed because the list template identified by its list-template ID does not exist.
    Wierd ! I checked the package, all elements, all list template, all IDs, all 14-hive files, ... everything was OK. No packaging errors found.
    Each time I deploy these list templates, they don't even appear in the silverlight-based list-creation popup.
    They don't even appear in the "SP Manager" tool.
    All my custom lists that was instantiated by SP (using declarative list instance), are well created,
    but they don't have their respective custom logo.
    And obviously, all its settings (within list template's XML file) was not applied.
    It's the first time I met this kind of problem.
    I even remove my content database, but the problem remains unchanged.
    Does anyone have any idea of what's wrong with my list templates, or even with SP ?
    Any idea to fix it ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Okavango93
    PS : In my WSP solution, I associate one list template element to three features, so I cannot set the attribute FeatureId to the list template.

    Hi,
    No answer so far ?
    I tore my hair out enough since a week, but finally I find out why.
    I fix today my list template issue by setting the feature attribute RequireResouces to false.
    If not, all element inside that feature will be hidden from the UI, and so will be the feature ... even if
    Hidden attribute equals to false and even if in any SP tools the feature seems to be there.
    Hope this help !

  • Help sought customizing a SP 2010 custom list template

    I am forced to use InfoPath 2010 to edit and then publish the form for a custom list, due to problems that SP 2010 has displaying a set of lookup columns on the form.
    Now that I have made the initial change, there are some other customizations that the users would like.
    I have a source list for a look up column.
    The source list has:
    Department number - ie 27
    Department name - ie Standards
    Department division - ie Technical
    as individual columns.
    The current column is defined to use Department name. The users have asked if the dropdown could instead display the data as:
    D27 - Standards - Technical
    When I tried to create a calculated column that concatenated all of those on the source list, I found myself unable to submit new items for the list - SharePoint kept reporting that I needed a positive integer as a selection value for the dropdown.
    Ideally what I want is the department number as the value for the dropdown, but the concatenated parts to be used as the display value of the lookup.
    I have not been able to figure out how to do that.
    Is there something simple that I am missing? When I look at the property of the dropdown, there isn't a way to add a formula to the display name of the data source/entries portion of the properties.

    So after some work, I changed the number column to a text column in the list.
    The control for selecting information on that control is not working properly now.
    It is a drop down listbox control.
    Its properties are:
    cannot be blank
    get choices from an external data source
    data source is my sharepoint list that contains department number (text field now), department name, division name
    entries is set to myFields->dataFields->d:SharePointListItem_RW - that is how it came out of the box, so I am assuming that it is correct
    Value is set to d:SharePointListItem_RW->Department Number
    Display name is set to d:SharePointListITem_RW->Department Name
    When I attempt to use the form, the control is populated with the department names.
    However, the last entry of the list is selected. Normally there would be nothing selected.
    Even worse, if I select something else in the control, something causes the last entry in the list to be selected.
    I don't know why something is causing a different item to be selected. There are no rules set on this form as far as I am aware.

  • Custom List Template - Adding a substitution string

    Hi all,
    I have created a List template by copying an existing list template.
    I want to have a substitution string so that I can assign a different identification to the list itself each time I use the list template.
    <ul id="#SOME_SUBSTITUTION_STRING#">
    <li></li>
    <li></li>
    </ul>The #A01# - #A10# seems to be applied only on list items. I cannot find a way to have such a substitution string that can be applied to the unordered list tag.
    Would anyone know of a way to do that? I'm using Apex 3.1
    Thanks,
    Raihaan

    The reason I want to be able to specify the id of the unordered list is that I have a javascript function using the id to build the rest of the list dynamically.
    But if that's not possible, I will have to hardcode the "id" in the template and have a different template everytime I want to implement a list having the same characteristics.
    Thanks,
    Raihaan

  • Find and item Search not working inside custom list in sharepoint 2013

    HI,
    In Sharepoint 2013 , i configured the Search. it is working in home page search Box and Find item search box  inside custom list as well But one particualr custom list  Find an item is not working. Any clue ?Thanks in Advance
    Thanks
    sanjay pradhan  

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is “find an item” search box in a custom list not work in your environment.
    As search box and “find an item” search box in your home page are working, so the search service application is working.
    Do you have any customzation to the particular custom list ?
    If No, I suggest you can full crawl the data in Central Administration ->Manage Service Application->” Search Service Application”-> Manage Content Sources” to test if it works. 
    Also, please check if you have set "Allow items from this list to appear in search results" in list settings->Advanced Setting to true

  • OOTB Approval Workflow on Custom List does not Update Approval Status

    I have a custom list on which I've required content approval.  I then created a workflow instance from the "Approval - SharePoint 2010" template.  For this workflow I have selected "Update the approval status after the workflow
    is completed (use this workflow to control content approval".  When I approve the list item via the workflow task item the status of the item is not updated but stays at pending even though the
    workflow shows "Completed" with the Outcome of "approved".  Is this the expected behavior, i.e. does "Update the approval status after the workflow is completed (use this workflow to control content approval"
    not work for custom lists?  Does it work on any of the lists?

    Hi Kalos1840,
    If you check "Require Content Approval" setting, only the way above can update the approval status due to the approval status is for this approval workflow. As this approval workflow cannot achieve your demand, I recommend you un-check "Require Content Approval"
    setting and create a custom workflow such as the OOTB Approval Workflow or SharePoint Designer workflow.
    Here is the steps of a SharePoint Designer workflow:
    1.Go to your custom list , click Create a Workflow in SharePoint Designer.
    2.Add a “Start a task process” action in your workflow.
    3.Click “these users” and Start a Task Process edit page will pop up.
    4.In the Participants field, input your  approvers based on the order of approval.
    5.In the right of Participants field, select “Serial (one at a time)”.

  • Build customized search functionality

    Hi,
    I have atleast 1000 documents to be uploaded into the portal content areas.I have to build the customized search functionality for the user to be able to search for docs in specified categories.
    How do I go abt that.
    Thanx
    -Vipul

    Items should indeed appear on category page soley because you have set the the category of the item. You can't upload an item to the category page directly.
    So if you've set the category of the item and it's not on the category page we need to think about why that might be happening. The first possibility is that they portlets on the category page (since category pages are just pages with custom search portlets automatically showing the results). By default the portlets will be cached in webcache. However the cache headers should mean that the portlets are only cached for 10 minutes. That would be the first thing to consider I think.

  • Add user search functionality in a custom form

    Hi,
    I am new to IDM . I have two doubts regarding search functionality. Please help me out.
    1.     I want to add a user search option for a field and populate the value(user name ) from the searched result to that filed. The search option should have some search criteria like firstname ,lastname ,userid etc; depending on which we can search a particular user and after selecting one record that data should populate to that filed. Please let me know how can I archive that functionally? Is it possible to use the existing (out of box) search operation for it.
    2.     When we use selector, is it possible to change the default search option. I want to search depending on some criteria like firstname,lastname ,userid etc.
    Thank in advance.

    When I run my project on the Integrated WebLogic Server and when I click on my page, the data is coming empty.
    When I see the Administrator console, this content presenter template is in Hidden by default. I just edit the template and made it availabe. But still am unable to get result in the required template.
    On my page, if I do not specify the  <parameter id="templateView" value="${'templates.photos.list'}"/>, then I will get the result with default content presenter template.
    Could any one please help me out?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    I am able to get the result with required custom content presenter template. But every time when I run the project , I need to explicitly need to make it "show" my custom content presenter display template i.e. in the Administration console, initially it is in Hidden state, I need to edit and make it show.
    I already made this template as portal resource  but why it is still be in Hidden state. what extra step do I need to make in order to move it to "show" state?
    Thanks

  • Custom Display template for Content Search webpart

    Hi,
    I am trying to customize the out of the box "slideshow" display template for content search webpart which renders Images.

    Can anyone please help on how to do this?
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to increase the dimensions of the container or control template to show a much larger image size in the Content Search web part.
    I recommend to create a custom Display Template (control and Item display templates) and use JQuery Slider plugin to achieve this goal.

  • Finder/Spotlight does not seem to be searching the contents of docx files anymore. How do I re-enable this search function?

    I used to be able to search the contents of .docx MS Word files in the past, but this feature suddenly stopped working.
    Anyone else experiencing this as well and is there a fix?
    Thanks.

    Similar or same problem, with similar and same hardware/software.  This is incredibly frustrating given that for the last ten years we've been told not to worry about organizing our files but instead rely on tags and meta-data.
    .docx files are found when no file content is searched.
    When some content is searched, recent .docx files (last 7 days) files may appear, but nothing older.
    Just to be clear, when any content is searched for, no .docx files older than 7 days are present in search results.
    However, .doc files with identical content are found, as are PDFs etc.
    Reindexing changes nothing.

  • Content Presenter - Custom templates

    Hi,
    I am using Content Presenter to render the contents stored in UCM 11g, and trying to use the Custom Template.
    following steps were done:
    1) created a very simple jsff file having following contents:
    <?xml version = '1.0'?>
