Search on Custom UserProfile property with multiple values in a Result Source

For my customer i have created a news system based around pagelayouts, contenttypes and the new SharePoint 2013 Content by Search Webpart.
When my customer creates a new "news page", they have the option to tag the news with a category, which is a manage metadata field. I use this property to filter different views in the "Content By Search Web Parts" presented on the front
page of their intranet.
The customer also wanted a "user specific" news result source, which returned the news in which the user was interested in reading.
To make this feature possible I created a custom user profile property, which was hooked to the same Term source as the field on the news content type. By doing so the users would be able to select the news categories(channels) they are interested in seeing.
I then created a result source, that matched the users selection with the selected category on the news and thereby only return the result that the users were interested in.
This worked flawlessly, until they encountered a situation where a user selected more than one category. The result source always only returns news where the category matches the first tag in the users selection. It completely ignores the other selections
chosen by the user.
Underneath you can see the configurations.
Users selection on their profile:
The result source query and result:
Where owstaxIdPANewsCategory is the Managed Property hooked to the category field on the news content type.
The above result should have given me 2 items, do to the fact that there are one news tagged with "test1" and one news tagged with "test2".
Any help would be appreciated 

My colleague came up with the answer.
The correct syntax in my case would be as follows:
{|owstaxIdPANewsCategory:{User.NewsCategory}}
the "|" char indicates that it should match it up against all selected values.

  • Creating a property with list values derived from other hierarchy

    Hello Friends,
    Thanks in advance for any help in this regard.
    1)     Can we have a property with list values populated automatically from other hierarchy.
    2)     Can we select multiple items from the list box. Does property allows multiple values.
    The example is like this. There are 2 hierarchies.
    Customer
         Customer 1
         Child Customer
    Industry
         Hightech
         Computers
         TVs
    Manufacturing
         Auto
         Steel
         Healthcare
         Pharma
         HealthInsurance
    The requirement is to add Industry hierarchy as property of Customer Hierarchy and select each customer is what type of Industry they belong as a property value.
    Thanks

    Use property data type ListGroup for multiselect.
    To select values from another hierarchy you can use Node or MultiNode, or an Asscociated Node property, of which there are several types. I'm not fond of the property editors for Node data types and will often just use a string and validate the user input by defaultin prefixes and such with a derived property that is checked by a query based validation. Make sense?

  • Document library view: Group by a column with multiple values

    I have a document library which has a managed metadata column.
    I would like to create a view which groups the documents by this managed metadata column.
    The managed metadata column can have multiple values.
    I know that this is not possible with SharePoint's group by, since it only accepts those columns which can have only one single value.
    But is this possible to accomplish by some other means, e.g. Content query web part? Or is there perhaps a 3rd party solution to this?
    Is it possible to change the group by settings somehow to allow Group by to function with columns with multiple values? <- this may be far fetched...

    Hi Pekch,
    I'm assuming you have VS2010 to build the custom web part. From there you will need to figure out the following:
    Get a SPList object for the Document Library (See below for code example)
    Loop through all the documents in the SPList object 
    If you have audience targetting enabled, then you'll need to determine if the user has access to the document by checking the "Target_x0020_Audiences" column)
    As you also want to group by metadata, you'll need to populate 2 datatables (one table with a column containing unique metadata values and another table with a metadata column and other document related columns).  Link these two tables via a dataset
    relation.
    Set the dataset as the datasource for a repeater, add in some css and javascript for the group expand/collaspe and it should be close to what you need.
    This will be a time consuming task if you don't know where to start or have problems figuring out how to perform a certain operation.  So you may want to determine if the functionality you want is required or just a "nice to have".  Good
    luck and if I have some spare time, I'll create a blog post outlining how to do all the above.
    I got the below code from a sharepoint blog sometime in the past and you can use it to retrieve a list.
    You can use it like this: GetListByUrl(http://servername/Shared%20Documents/Forms/AllItems.aspx)
    using    Microsoft.SharePoint;
    public SPList GetListByUrl(string listURL)
    SPList list = null;
    try
    using (SPSite site = new SPSite(listURL))
    if (site != null)
    // Strip off the site url, leaving the rest
    // We'll use this to open the web
    string webUrl = listURL.Substring(site.Url.Length);
    // Strip off anything after /forms/
    int formsPos = webUrl.IndexOf("/forms/", 0, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase);
    if (formsPos >= 0)
    webUrl = webUrl.Substring(0, webUrl.LastIndexOf('/', formsPos));
    // Strip off anything after /lists/
    int listPos = webUrl.IndexOf("/lists/", 0, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase);
    if (listPos >= 0)
    // Must be a custom list
    // Strip off anything after /lists/
    webUrl = webUrl.Substring(0, webUrl.LastIndexOf('/', listPos));
    else
    // No lists, must be a document library.
    // Strip off the document library name
    webUrl = webUrl.Substring(0, webUrl.LastIndexOf('/'));
    // Get the web site
    using (SPWeb web = site.OpenWeb(webUrl))
    if (web != null)
    // Initialize the web (avoids COM exceptions)
    string title = web.Title;
    // Strip off the relative list Url
    // Form the full path to the list
    //string relativelistURL = listURL.Substring(web.Url.Length);
    //string url = SPUrlUtility.CombineUrl(web.Url, relativelistURL);
    // Get the list
    list = web.GetList(listURL);
    catch { }
    return list;

  • Can you add People Picker with multiple values to Word Document using Quick Parts?

    Hi all, I've been trying to develop a form in Word that takes a bunch of metadata from the SharePoint library. Most of it works okay, but when I try to add any fields that have been set up to take multiple entries in a people picker, they don't show up
    in the add quick parts list. Any ideas, or is this a limitation?

    Hi NREL,
    According to your description, my understanding is that the people picker column with multiple values was missing in Word Quick Parts.
    This is by design that we are unable to use the fields which is allowed multiple selections.
    As a workaround, you can use a text field(Single line of text) to store the multiple values of the people column. When you create a document, start a workflow to update the text field using the values of the people column, then use the
     text field in Word Quick Parts.
    You can do as the followings:
    Open your library, and create a new column using Single line of text.
    Open your site with SharePoint 2010 Designer, create a workflow based on your library.
    Add the action “Set Field in CurrenItem”, and set it like the screenshot.
    Set the Start Options is “Start workflow automatically when an item is created”.

  • Web Forms using substitution variables with multiple values

    Hi,
    I am trying to select a substitution variable in a webform (Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3) with multiple values in EAS, but is not working does somebody knows if this an expected behaviour.
    I allready try ex.
    &Months = "Jan","Feb", "Mar"
    &Months = Jan, Feb, Mar
    &Months = Jan:Mar
    Please let me know something, since as far as I recall in previous versions of Hyperion Planning this was possible.
    Kind Regards

    We experienced the same issue, our requirement was that for the first half of the year the substitution variable was = Oct and for the second part of the year Jan:Dec. We were lucky that for the second scenario we had a Total Year member as well (that at the bottom level is Jan:Dec). So on web form we picked Level0 descendants of the substitution variable. That worked fine but not the range.

  • How can I compare single value with multiple value...

    Hello,
    I want to compare one value with multiple values, how can it possible ?
    Here in attachment I tried to design same logic but I got problem that when I entered value in y that is compared with only minimum value of x, I don't want that I want to compare y value with all the x value and then if y is less then x while loop should be stop.
    I want to do so because in my program some time I didn't get result what I want, for example x values is 4,5,6,7,8  and y value is  suppose 6 then while loop should be stop but here it consider only minimum number and its 4 here so while loop is not stop even y is less then 7 and 8. So I want to compare y value with all the entered values of x and if y is less then any of x values then while loop should be stop and led should be ON.
    Please guide me how can I do so.....

  • OLAP on 11g and Materialised Views with Multiple Value-Based Hierarchies

    Hello OLAPians
    I am trying to setup Orable BIEE to report on an OLAP cube with pre-aggregated data. As OBIEE is not able to hook into the OLAP directly i have to create an SQL cubeview.
    Currently i am on a 10g OLAP environment and am using the oracle sample SQL cubeview generator to create an SQLview of my cube.
    The cube itself has multiple dimensions and these dimensions have multiple VALUE-based (ragged) hierarchies and dimension members can be shared across hierarchies also.
    Initially i had a problem running the view generator plugin because there is a bug within it that does not finish if there are multiple value-based hierarchies present. I was able to get around this by manually editing the limitmap for the cubeview and manually creating the SQL view.
    The question that i want to ask is how robust is the 11g materialised views with multiple value-based hierarchies and the sharing of dimension members across different hierarchies?
    Has anyone successfully been able to create a cubeview and import it into OBIEE without the hassle of manually editing the limitmap?
    A problem arises with the value-based setup whereby if the client creates a newer depth in the ragged hierarchy, i need to manually create the limitmap and the cube-view over again, and then re-map the BI Administration mappings.

    The simple answer to your question,
    how robust is the 11g materialised views with multiple value-based hierarchies...?is that materialized views are not supported on top of value-based hierarchies in 11g. The reason is that it is not possible to write a reasonable SQL statement that aggregates a fact over a value-based hierarchy. Such a SQL statement is necessary if we want to create a rewritable MV on top of the cube.
    But I suspect this is not what you are really asking. If you are trying to set up OBIEE on top of the cube in 10g using the view generator, then you will probably want to use the "ET VIEWS" that are generated automatically in 11g. These are generated whether or not you enable materialized views on top of your cube. I am not aware of any issues with the generated value-based hierarchy view support in 11g. Members may be shared between value hierarchies and you will not need to generate or modify limit maps.

  • Snmp for oids with multiple values

    Hi,
    So if we have array of OIDs defined in the mib file (eg, 1.3.6.1.4.1.22.1.1, 1.3.6.1.4.1.22.1.2, 1.3.6.1.4.1.22.1.3 and so on each having different values). does anyone know how can we capture this using SNMP fetchlet?
    or
    do we need to specify each oid separately?
    Thanks

    Maybe I misunderstood lushhay here. I thought lushhay wanted to associate a key with multiple values. So one way is to have the value of the Hashtable key to be an ArrayList.
    Hashtable table = new HashTable();
    String key1 = "myKey";
    String key2 = "myKey2";
    Date value1 = (some date value);
    Date value2 = (another date value);
    Date value3 = (another date value);
    ArrayList valueList = new ArrayList();
    valueList.add(value1);
    valueList.add(value2);
    valueList.add(value3);
    table.put(key1,valueList);
    This would associate "myKey1" with 3 date values stored in an ArrayList.
    There is a downside to using the string concatenation method. You assume that the content of each values will never contain a delimiter. You also assume that the values are strings. But if the values are byte[], the string concatenation will not work. If the values are Dates, it can still work, but you would have to convert it from Date to String then concatenate, then get the String value through StringTokenizer and then convert back to Date.
    But anyways, if the values are Strings (and won't contain the delimiter character), then the concatenation method would suffice.

  • How to compare single value with multiple values

    In my query I have something like this:
    A.SOR_CD=B.SOR_CODE where A and B are 2 different tables. This condition is in the where clause. The column in table A has single values but some values in table B have multiple comma separated values (822, 869, 811, ..).  I want to match this single
    value on the left side with each of the comma separated values. Please let me know how will I be able to do it. The number of comma separated values on the right side may vary.

    Hi MadRad123,
    According to your description, you want to compare single value with multiple values in your query. Right?
    In this scenario, the table B has comma separated values, however those comma separated values are concatenated into a string. So we can use charindex() function to return the index of the table A value. And use this index as condition in
    your where clause. See the sample below:
    CREATE TABLE #temp1(
    ID nvarchar(50),
    Name nvarchar(50))
    INSERT INTO #temp1 VALUES
    ('1','A'),
    ('2','A'),
    ('3','A'),
    ('4','A'),
    ('5','A')
    CREATE TABLE #temp2(
    ID nvarchar(50),
    Name nvarchar(50))
    INSERT INTO #temp2 VALUES
    ('1','a,A'),
    ('2','A,B'),
    ('3','c'),
    ('4','A,C'),
    ('5','d')
    select * from #temp1 a inner join #temp2 b on a.ID=b.ID
    where CHARINDEX(a.Name,b.Name)>0
    The result looks like below:
    Reference:
    CHARINDEX (Transact-SQL)
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • A variable with multiple values. Is it possible?

    Normally, when we need a variable with multiple values we just write them while creating the variable or, if they depend on some other variable selected by the user a variable of type exit is used.
    However, this time we would like my user to select <b>a few</b> variable values <b>at a time</b>, i.e years 2005,2006 and 2007. He can change his mind and then select 2007 and 2008. I don't want the user to be forced to select ONLY ONE value. They need to select several values at the same time.
    Ideally, I don't want to use a range with values from 2 variables to do that.
    Thanks,
    Alberto Sabate
    Message was edited by: Alberto Sabate

    Hello Alberto,
    When restricting variables to multiple values you need to use a range. The variable restriction in BPS supports two operators EQ - equals and BT - between.
    In your example below however you could use a user exit to support this. The years you have typed in below are sequential and therefore would fit into a range.
    Cheers,
    Scott
