Search the discussions forum

so... we used to be able to search the discussions forum. Maybe I'm just missing where that feature went to. When I use the Search at the upper right corner of the page it searches all of Apple.com, but strangely enough rarely hits the forums. Please point me in the right direction.

Read this announcement from the main discussions page:

ERROR IN DISCUSSION FORUM PORTLET (9.0.4.0) (SEARCH)

I had downloaded and installed Discussion Forum (9.0.4.0) version.
It deployed successfully.
When I try the search feature in Discussion Forum Portlet, it display error message.
After input text in the search textbox and press the "Go" button, error message display "Error: JBO-29000: Unexpected exception caught: java.lang.NullPointerException, msg=null".
How can I solve it?

Discussion forum portlet is not NLS compliant, so its not capable of handling multibyte characters at present.

Search Match in Community NI Discussion Forums - message format

Is there a way to go back to just a plain text format for search match notification messages? I don't need a link to ni.com on every message and the format gets messed up anyway for those of us with text clients. If we could use the same format as the NI Discussion Forums Subscriptions update message that would be doubly good.

Slow to a crawl in the Discussions Forum

Today has been maddeningly slow . It was taking a few minutes to just open a subject , a couple times I timed out and/or the site appeared to actually go down . I am finding it strange that I don't see much mention of this . At first I thought it was my eMac but the Powerbook was also slow and when I tried the PC , it to was slow . This is just in the Apple Discussions Forum everything else is fine so it's not AT&T
A search for "slow" showed up some problems in Nov. that were blamed on "code tweaking" so I assume this may be the same problem . Is there someplace that tells about current issues or problems ? Ebay mentions in advance when they will be doing maintenance .

Hi Kady
Thank you for the info . I thought it was my computer because I was having other troubles .
Was it memory leaks ? It would be nice if something could be posted when things slow down. Hear is some info I found ;
Well, I’m sure you guys and gals know this already, but spend half an hour on the Apple discussion boards at http://discussions.info.apple.com/webx?[email protected]@ , preferably accessing things like “my posts” or other search related activity and you will very soon find some nasty memory leaks.
Most people find that the ‘Real RAM” consumption of Safari goes up from a a few megabytes to over 200MB within 20 minutes or so., at which time very nasty slowdowns occur (40 secs to a minute to open a link on the pages, despite my 1500 ADSL link and an iMac G5 2 GHz with 2 gig of RAM. The problem causes these slowdowns even when I have more than a Gig of RAM completely free.)
A number of Apple Discussion Board Level 4’s have been discussing this problem and reporting exactly the same experience. We have been wondering whether to blame you, Apple , Javascript, or Web Crossing. Many people who use this board regularly are simply shifting to other browsers to avoid the problem.
The leak can be overcome to a large extent by disabling javascript, but this is a very annoying way to have to deal with the issue. Spend half an hour on these boards and I’m sure you will soon get some relevant information!
Cheers

Error JBO-26080 with Discussion Forum portlet

Hi,
I'm getting an error with the discussion forum portlet.
This is one way I found to reproduce this problem:
- reply to a post in a forum
- do a search that should include the post added before in the result
- you should get this error
Unable to perform the operation: JBO-26080: Error while selecting entity for ThreadSearchEntityObject
Is this a known problem? Does anybody knows a fix/workaround?
Thanks in advance
Bye
Lorenzo

Hi Pedro,
I found the portlet on this page
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/point_downloads.html
the one called "OracleAS Discussion Forum Portlet".
On this same page this forum is suggested to report problems.
I think this problem is due to some BC4J error, maybe a quick fix/workaround is possible, but I do not know this technology.
In the next day I'll try anyway to check the source, but I was also interested to know if somebody else has the same problem so to exclude the option of some installation/configuration problem of my deploy.
Thanks again
Bye
Lorenzo

Tweak SharePoint 2013 Discussion Forum

I have a discussion forum created in SharePoint 2013. I want to make some minor tweaks, but searched everywhere on how to do it and changing random settings is getting me nowhere.
Add choice column
I would like to add a category as a Choice column so that it shows up:
1. In the Subject view, ideally before the author. E.g.
My question about so and so
CategoryXYZ | By Randar Puust | Latest reply by Randar Puust | About an hour ago
2. Editable when I add or edit a post. I know I can do this through List Settings. I just want to makes sure the solution to 1 does not break this.
Default for Question
I would like to make the Question field Yes by default. Everything starts as an unanswered question unless they explicitly turn it off.
Note: I am not afraid of changing code if I need to, but I've never actually done any code level customization of SharePoint. I've barely used the SharePoint designer. So not quite a newbie, but far from a guru.

In terms of using the Discussion Board app, either I'm not understanding what you mean (which is very possible), or you may not realize how restricted the discussion app is 2013. The three out of the box views (Threaded, Flat and Subject) do not allow
any customization at all. I can't even add columns. I've tried to add the columns like so:
But they do now show up in any of the views.
I can get it to show up when the discussion item is created and when I export to Excel, but I cannot get it to show up in the threaded view. I would include more screenshots, but this forum only allows 2 images per post, so hopefully these screenshots
help clarify my challenge.

I don't want to submit a #@$%^& question! I just want to search the forum for answered questions.

Why is Apple such a freaking control freak?
Hey Apple—quit fixing s**t that isn't broken!

You could use google. If you want to only search these discussions forums use the following syntax in a google search:
whatever you are searching for site:discussions.apple.com
Update:
Why is this questio/discussion in Cinema Displays when it should have been in Using Apple Support Communities?

Welcome to the New NI Discussion Forums!

We are excited to present the NEW and IMPROVED NI Discussion Forums to you, our valued community members!
The community not only had a face-lift, it now offers a full set of advanced personalization features and it is available in seven languages!
Here are some tips to help you get around the new system:
What do the boxes next to the user names mean?
This is the new user ranking system. The three boxes represent the user’s score in the three performance metrics: ratings, posts, and logins. The darker the box is shaded, the higher the user has scored in that performance metric.
The box on the left is the average message rating the user has received.
The box in the center is the total number of posts the user has contributed to the community.
The box on the right is the number of times the user has logged into the community.
The blue boxes designate the user is an NI Employee while the gold boxes are reserved for NI Partners and customers.
How do I find a thread from the old system in the new system?
If you have the title of the thread, we recommend searching for it using the search bar at the top or bottom of the page.
If you do not have the title of thread or cannot find it with search, but you know that you posted to the thread, we recommend that you login and click on your Alias at the top of the page to view your profile. From your profile page, click on the Find All Posts by this User link and scroll through the results to find the thread.
If you do not have the title of the thread and you didn’t post to it, but you know the Alias of someone else who did post to the thread, conduct a User search to find that user. Click on their Alias to view their profile page and then use the Find All Posts by this User link to find the thread.
If you do not have the title of the thread and you don’t know the Alias of any user who posted to it, we recommend browsing the board that you believe it would be in until you find it.
How do I personalize the forums?
Once you login, click on the My Profile link at the top of the page. From the tabs on this page, you can modify your time zone, ratings preference, font size, emoticon style, etc to personalize your experience. As long as you remember to Save Changes before you leave the tabs, your forum will be personalized for you each time you login.
What languages are supported?
The user interface is translated into the following languages:
Chinese (Simplified)
Chinese (Traditional)
English
French
Korean
Japanese
Spanish
Note: The language in the My Preferences tab in the forums only controls the language for that session. As soon as you logout and login again, your language will be reset to the language that you have configured in your NI User Profile. To modify the language configured in your NI User Profile, visit www.ni.com/profile.

What does Float mean?
You can choose to pin boards or threads to the top of the lists so that when you are logged in they are the first things you see. To do this, click on the up arrow to the right of the board or message you want to Float to the top of your lists. When you no longer want this message or board at the top of your lists, you can click the arrow again to UnFloat the board or message.
Why are there smiley faces in the sample code pieces?
There are times when the pieces of code include the same characters that are used to create an emoticon in the forums. To disable emoticons so that you can see the code correctly, follow these steps:
Sign In or Register to the forums if you are not already logged in
Click My Profile in the User Bar at the top of the page
Click My Preferences to view the My Preferences tab
Change the Emoticon Type to None in the My Preferences tab in your Profile
Click Save Changes
Now when you browse to the thread, the code should be displayed correctly.
Emoticons will no longer be displayed in any messages you view in the forums until you change the Emoticon Type back to one of the other types.
If you have additional questions or feedback about the upgrade, refer to the Help or post to the Feedback on NI Discussion Forums board.

Just a couple of comments:
1. In the CVI forum, I couldn't post a message which included the C #include syntax with angle brackets. It interpreted the angle brakcets as HTML, gave me an HTML syntax error, and deleted the angle brackets as well as the .h file they enclosed. There may be a way in HTML to escape the angle brakcets so they can be included as text rather than interpreted as HTML, but I shouldn't have to do that in a C forum.
2. When I got the HTML error message above, it also deleted the file I had attached so when I posted the message, there was no attachment.
3. I don't get automatic hyperlinks in any posts I read or create. The text of the URL is there, but I can't just click to link to the new page. Am I missing some option?
4. Older but updated messages don't come to the top. I like to see new activity even if I'm not subscribed to that thread.
5. When reviewing the list of messages in the forums, I'd like to see the ratings of the author and of the reply (even before opening the message). In the old forums, the messages where tagged "Answered by Enthusiast" and/or "High rating".
6. I'd like to see the buttons to rate an answer even if I'm not logged. If I try to rate an answer when I'm not logged on, it could prompt me to log on first. If the rating buttons are only available if you're logged on, I think the number of ratings will be drastically reduced.
7. I miss the list of top contributors (formerly known as Enthusiasts). I think it was a good way to foster community and to get to know active members. It also generated some friendly competition to see who had more posts and who had higher ratings.
8. I liked the old organization with two sections to show the newest answered questions separate from the newest unanswered questions.
9. Some of the new search options are good additions. I'd like to combine the user search and the message search. For example, I might like to search for any message from Bilal on DLLs.
10. I had to make this a Top 10 list. I'm impressed by the amount of work that went into the new forums. Keep it up!

Discussion forum in other languages?

Hi,
Is there a discussion forum in dutch please?

Is there a discussion forum in dutch please?
The only Apple discussion forum in another language is Japanese.
But you might find something in Dutch run by Mac user groups in the Netherlands or Belgium. Best try a Google search.

OTN Discussion Forum questions are gone

My OTN Discussion Forum questions seem to have been deleted. They were only about 1-2 months old. Does anyone know if they are deleted or archived after a certain time period? I'd like to find them for reference if anyone knows how to do that?

You are posting today's question with username 18e07053-637d-44a1-97ce-f070d9c69384
That is a system-generated name for a new account.
Were those other posts created with the same user account?
Have you recently tried to change your login name (which has been known to totally muck up user profiles, by the way) ?
The site software has no possible ability to magically merge postings from multiple accounts.
I suggest you try to remember older threads and find them using the site search function.
If you can find those threads, you might be able to see if they were posted with the same user account or some previous account.
Once you do that, you can return to this thread and give us all more information on what you may have found..
