Search Entire Robohelp Forum?

Is it possible to search the entire Robohelp forum, or do I
have to enter my search term into each category individually?
Usually one never knows which category help might turn up
in!

Welcome to our community, mcclellc
When you prepare the search, just select all the forum
categories in the list using either Ctrl+Click or Shift+Click.
Cheers... Rick

  • Searching on the Forums

    When searching, it is helpful to first understand the structure of the forums. The discussion forums are organized in a hierarchy starting with category at the highest level and then discussion boards, and then topics within each board. A category is an area in which multiple boards reside. Within a board, you will find numerous user created topics. Within a topic, you will find the original post and the subsequent replies.
    Searching from the Homepage
    When searching from the homepage using the search box located under the main navigation at the top right of the page, you are searching all categories.
    Searching from a Category Page
    Currently, our categories consist of Most Active Software Boards, Most Active Hardware Boards, Additional NI Product Boards, and Special Interest Boards -- as well as 9 various language boards. If you are on one of the category pages you will see the default search option is set to search only the boards within the category you are viewing.
    Click the dropdown menu to change in which section of the discussion forums you would like to conduct your search.
    Searching from a Board Page
    If you are on one of the board pages - such as the LabVIEW board - you will see the search option is set to search only the topics within the board you are viewing.
    Click the dropdown menu to change in which section of the discussion forums you would like to conduct your search.
    Search Filters
    Regardless of the scope of your search, once you are on the search results page, you can make use of the filtering options on the left sidebar for advanced sorting.
    The filters include changing the location of your search, filtering by author (username), date, solved or kudoed posts, type of post (only applicable when searching entire discussion forum), and topics with images or attachments.
    You can also make use of the advanced search form to search for exact phrases, topics including or excluding certain words, and viewing your results by topic or specific posts.
    Spellcheck in Search
    When you are performing a search, the search strings are spellchecked using a weighted dictionary specific to the forum context. When you are conducting a search, your original search string is used as well as a spellchecked version. Depending on the outcomes of the two searches, the search results page displays either the results for the original string or the corrected one, i.e. if one search seems to have better results than the other.
    If you receive spellchecked results and wish to instead search by your original search query, click on the text Search instead for query under the search box.
    Searching for Users
    From any search box, click the dropdown menu to change the search scope to users only. You can search by partial or whole usernames. Use the advanced search options to find results on biography or rank.
    Navigation Search
    On every page, in the main navigation, you will find a search box that allows you to search the entire ni.com site.
    Searching here will yield results from the KnowledgeBase, manuals, tutorials, and more.

    Yeah, I dont know, this whole thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth.  Call me crazy but you would hope that when you buy an expensive phone it would last more than 15 months which is pretty far from forever..  Its ridiculous...  Consider me an unhappy customer.
    Thanks

  • Why can I no longer search a specific forum?

    It doesn't seem that long ago that one could drill down in the technical discussion forums and then search a specific forum.  Now, all I can see is that, no matter what forum I navigate to, I can only enter search terms for the entire "community".  99.9% of the time I really don't give a s__t about iPads and iPods, yet answers regarding them are always in the top results.  Put another way, how can I specifically search Using Mac OS 10.7 Lion for answers?

    Once you get the search screen up you restrict the forum to search and/or the person:
    Unfortunately to get this window you have to do the first search from the search communities box. What I do if I know I will  be restricting to one community is do an empty search which brings up the above window, then I enter the search term, the community and the person then search.]
    It would be nice of you could just get these options right from the get-go but at least there is a way.
    regards

  • Search a particular forum?

    Greetings,
    when I am in a given forum, I need the ability to search that perticular forum; not the entire Adobe site and not all forums; just that particular one.  How can I do that?
    Thank you

    Ditto.  I hope the priority for fixing this is set very high.
    Ditto. (Default should be current forum with subforums, checkbox option for all forums, and link option for advanced.)
    Ditto to not user friendly and high priority.
    I will also say that the small box and user unfriendly sort order for selecting forum in the "more options" search is what adds to the frustration of this poor initial implementation.  The visible box is small so it is hard to scroll quickly/scan it, and the organization is like the old adobe forums list - an odd assortment of alphabetizing by "Adobe Premiere" and "Encore" etc. (I don't really recall the examples.)
    The alpha listing on the main forum page in the "Product, Player, and Reader" forums is a great improvement and what I'd like to see here - meaningful alpha and drop down with enough vertical size to scan quickly.  But that single list is only that area, and does not include this general forum, etc.
    I wonder if separate forum/subforum selections is needed to make it easier to scan as well.  The main forum page selection is only forums (correctly so), but a search needs to go to the subforum level.  (And yes, that raises the sub-subforum level issue.)  But putting subforums in the same list with forums invites more complexity than many users are going to be comfortable with.

  • Searches in this forum.

    Searches in this forum are never fruitful for me even when I know a topic exists because it's one that I posted. I can enter the entire subject line of my post in the search filed and turn up lots of unrelated posts but the one I was looking for is no where to be found even when it clearly should be right at the top of the list assuming the list is sorted by relevancy and I typed the exact subject line in to the search field. Not a very intuitive style of searching when that can happen. I hope this eventually gets fixed someday.

    Hi Matthew!
    I found a Topic you started, using the Search Terms "new voices in leopard", and searching your alias for the text field Restrict by Username:.
    View the Search Results.
    Alternately, using the Search TermS new+voices++in+leopard, with no Username, produces the Same Results.
    But I agree with you, that the Search function is very inadequate.

  • Mail will no longer search "Entire Message". That option is grayed out. Why?

    How do I get Mail to search "Entire Message". That option suddenly is grayed out.

    A SMTP is a server for sending messages, and not as an Incoming server.  Do you mean an IMAP server?
    I did not mean it was for a single message, but the fact that you had a single message in local storage turned the option on, but it could only have search the messages that were in local storage.
    Check again in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced what is selected regarding Keep copies of Messages?

  • Full-text Search in RoboHelp

    I have downloaded JavaHelp using Sun Download Manager (download and extract JavaHelp) to activate Full-text Search in RoboHelp. But, while generating Help in RoboHelp, I get an error that JavaHelp is not installed. I am not able to understand how to Install JavaHelp. Please help.

    That's the way it worked in X4 and later versions up but not including RH8. RH8 includes phrase searching in webhelp.

  • How do I change the default "date range" when searching in the forums?

    Hi all,
    New to the SAP forums...  How do I change the default date range when searching in the forums?  I am getting a 90 day search by default.  Then I have to change it and search again.  Argh!
    Thanks,

    Hi Amy,
    the default date range cannot be changed by users. It is defined system-wide.

  • Dear Oracle: PLEASE improve the SEARCH on these forums!!!

    Subject: Dear Oracle: PLEASE improve the SEARCH on these forums!!!
    I have been getting frustrated using the search on these forums. I find the content very useful (especially as I cannot seem to find any other forums for Oracle Portal) but the search facility is very poor.
    Firstly, the Search will on search for an exact match in the body of the messages, not the subject at all! This is very annoying as people usually sum-up there question in the subject and often do not repeat the subject in the message.
    Secondly, the search looks for exact matches of your search string, so searching for more than one word become difficult. Bascially, it does only an exact match, not a word search, so forget about using keywords to search on as you would do in every other search engine and be very carful of the order of your words, you'll get a completly different set of results by swaping the order of your words... :(
    eg. Selecting "ALL FORUMS", try searching for "Customizing Change Password Page". no hits? ok try "Customizing Password" still no hits? ok try "Customizing the Password". still no hits? ok just try "customizing". You get 10 Pages of 20 (Oracle conviently puts them over 10 pages so you cannot view them all on a html page and do your own secondary search using CTRL-F). Well, this is too many, lets just try "Change Password". again 20 x 10+ pages. At least this time we've got some that also have the work customizing in the subject. If only we got here on the first search... Don't even think of adding the word "PDK" or "Example" to your search...
    I have already provided feedback to Oracle on this matter (and am still waiting for a reply). If you would also like the search improved, please also send Oracle some feedback and make this forum more useful. If enough people pester them they might think it's important enought to change. link below:
    http://otn.oracle.com/contact/htdocs/feedback.htm
    Cheers,
    Tim.
    P.S. In the meantime, does anyone know of any other good Portal forums?

    Couldn't agree more, if only the search was as good as on Metalink...

  • "search entire message" button in mail is sometimes grayed out

    Hi, Recently I've noticed that sometimes when I do a search in mail the button to search entire message is grayed out and unclickable.  This started happening in the last few days.  Just a minute ago I tried to do a search and the button was gray, then I went to Safari and logged into Apple support, went back to mail and typed a new search, and all of sudden the button is clickable again.  Any ideas?  Running 10.6.7 on a 15" Macbook Pro.  Thanks...

    Ernie,
    I collected the info you require - see below. Along the way I deduced that the problem may be a corrupted Spotlight index. As you'll see below attempting to remove Library or Mail from the index failed. I am currently rebuilding the entire volume index...
    Repair permissions - log shows no fixes. Search still fails...
    POP-<email> varies from 14.7MB down to 120kb.
    Typically the root level of POP-<email> is
    Deleted Messages.mbox
    Sent Messages.mbox
    Drafts.mbox
    INBOX.mbox
    Junk.mbox
    Some account also have "MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2"
    The root level of INBOX.mbox is typically:
    Info.plist [not always]
    Messages
    POP-steve%[email protected]
    has top level
    Deleted Messages.mbox
    Drafts.mbox
    INBOX.mbox
    Junk.mbox
    MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded
    MessageUidsAlreadyDownloaded2
    Sent Messages.mbox
    with INBOX.mbox top level of
    content_index
    Info.plist
    mbox
    mbox.SKindex
    mbox.SKindex.isValid
    Messages
    tableofcontents
    I deleted the out of date indexes, etc.
    Spotlight prefs, Privacy, add ~/Library/Mail
    "Privacy List Error
    The item couldn't be added or removed because of an unknown error."
    Same Mail operation worked on MBP -- also on MBP Library folder.
    Try MacPro Library - same error.
    Delete entire MacPro index. More to follow on whether this is the fix...

  • 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.

  • Problems with searching in this forum

    Is anyone else finding that the searching in this forum is no longer bringing back the same information that it used to? The problem seems to have started in the last few days. Any advice would be appreciated. I hope Sun fixes this!

    It looks like they are redesigning the search and they have a link to the beta version on the page. I tried it but it doesn't search just the forum we're in like the current search used to do. I don't like the new search page at all!
    I told them that on their feedback link also.

  • Mail search won't search Entire Message

    When I type anything into the search bar in mail, and have it select to search Entire Message, it won't find anything. Even if I only type 2 characters, it won't find it.
    In the SpotLight System Preference, I tried adding the whole drive to the privacy pane and then removing it.

    I had this problem too - I can't believe that now at 10.5.8, Apple STILL haven't sorted this out.
    I have eventually managed to get search back again (don't want to speak too soon though). Among other things, I did mdimport ~/Library/Mail following the advice in http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=5934412#5934412. However, I don't know if this actually had any particular effect, as Spotlight seemed to start a new index run after I had done this (which presumably would override the effects of the specific import).
    I have tried most things mentioned - rebuild mailbox, delete Envelope Index after quitting Mail, all sorts of variants of turning Spotlight or different volumes to be indexed or not on or off.
    I have not tried (because I don't think they are likely to have any effect) deleting the preferences, switching off and on again, resetting PRAM etc.
    I have tried searching for duplicate Mail copies, and searching for .metadataneverindex and disk utility checking permissions on the volumes and manually on the mail folders, and checking by looking that the mail folders are not packages, but come on, I don't think any of these are likely.
    Personally, I think it was the virgin sacrifice that fixed it.
