Searching portal content

Hi all,
I would like to configure TREX to search the URL iViews are accessible by the current user and display the results.
The links in the results should navigate back to the corresponding iview in the content area. In other words the TLN and detailed navigation should match the link in the result set.
Thanks in advance.
Janvi.

Hi Janvi,
it depends on how perfect your solution should be.
The PCD-repository is available in SPS14. This repository can also be used for indexing and search.
But here is an idea that may fit your needs :
Create your a separate folder where you store 'your' pcd-link-documents. For example 'Room XYZ'. Set the contentlink of this document to the respective PCD-link.
You can find it on attaching it to your portal favorites. Then organize your favorites -> Details -> Properties -> Access link.
Example:
navurl://4d375cdf6898fcc36232bae0478eb9b4
You might as well copy this document and set a description text. This description text is scanned on a normal search and the document link causes a portal navigation.
This scenario can be rather easily combined with sponsored links, where you set the link to such a PCD-navigation-link:

The PCD links are then offered as 'special navigation' links for the user, eg when he searches for 'My Rooms'.

  • Portal content search still case sensitive in EP7?

    Hi,
    Is searching in portal content still case sensitive in EP7?  In other words, if you go to Content Administration -> Search -> iView and type in the name, is this type of search still case sensitive?  If not, how do I fix it?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Regards,
    Rick

    Hi,
    Yes, search in content admin is still case sensitive...

  • Indexing portal content by external search engine

    Hi All,
    I have a question about how to enable external search engine to index portal content.
    as I searched in sap help [Indexing Portal Content|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/46/9d1405fa743ef0e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm]
    To enable public search engines, such as Google, to index portal content, provide the search engine with the following URL:
    irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.utilities.tools.portalspider.SpiderWebInterface?
    How should I provide this above url to external search engine?
    Many thanks for all reply.
    Cheers,

    P.S. We use the default KM.

  • Portal Search Not Working - Only Returns Portal Content, Not TREX Indexes

    I have configured two indexes using the portal.  One is for documents that reside on the portal, and the other one is for a website that we have configured in TREX using Cruiser.  The TREX Admin console shows that the website information has been indexed.  However, when I search on a word in Portal, only the portal contents are displayed.  Is there a different search field for looking up TREX/indexed files?  I'm using the search field that's on the front page of the portal.  Also, both indexes belong to the same index group.  I did use the serach feature built-in to TREX Admin to verify that there were documents stored in the index.

    Please check Below Link

  • Best way to index portal content

    Hi all,
    I am searching for a nice way to index the content of the portal.
    Using the standard functionality (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/46/9d1405fa743ef0e10000000a1553f7/frameset.htm) does not lead to sufficient results, since all roles which are located in PCD are indexed and are found by the enduser.
    This could lead to the situation that the enduser might open a page which leads to an error or a blank page.
    The other possibility is to use the PCD roles search (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/b2/d59a4271c80a31e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm). This only offers results of roles which are assigned to the user.
    However, content of iViews (e.g. URL iViews) are not indexed and so the user can only search for the ID / description of the page (which is okay, but content search is also important).
    Is there no other possibility to search for portal content?
    Thanks for any hints...
    Best Regards
    Philipp Kölsch

    Hi,
    it seems that the current ways of indexing portal content are not really sufficient... I hope that there are better solutions in the future...

  • Collaboration Launch Pad as iview in the Portal content

    Hi friends,
    i have the following problem. I configured the collaboration launch pad (real time collaboration) and it works fine.
    I just don´t want to start the iview from the collaboration link next to the TREX search. Instead of that i need the iview with the user status and the possibility to start an instant message session within the portal content.
    Does anyone know if it is possible and what is the name of the corresponding iview?
    Thanks in advance
    Michael

    Hi Michael
    Create an new iView (new from PAR => iView) and select the com.sap.netweaver.coll.shared.ui
    Create a link in the iView to the contacts:
    In the iView properties add in field "Path for Initially Displayed Folder": /alias/%3Cmycontacts%3E
    and in field "Path for Start Uri": /alias/<mycontacts>
    Hope this helps.
    This worked, but I needed also to activate the Tool Area with activated CLP link. I didn't get it work without Tool Area.

  • Srm-catalog portal content

    hi!
    does anybody know what is the special content that SRMMDMCAT01_0.sca have?  
    different iViews?
    if i'm implementing srm-portal-mdm-r3   it's necessary?
    because i'm not using all the srm catalog, and only installed the mdm portal content, i'll have some problems?
    thanx

    The purpose of SRM-MDM is to use MDM as the catalog.  You would store the data in MDM and SRM will then reference MDM ad-hoc.  As part of the implementation, SAP delivers a webdynpro application which is deployed on a Netweaver Java stack, and that's what the user uses to search the catalog.  The two applications (iViews) are called SearchUI and AdminUI.  If you aren't going to use these, how are you planning on searching the catalog from SRM?

  • URL iView content translation not working using Portal Content Traslation

    Hi All,
    I am using Portal Content Translation to translate text of URL iView from English to Spanish. I am unable to do so. I have followed the below mentioned link:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/74/641640b7b6dd5fe10000000a155106/frameset.htm
    I have used Content Admin -> Portal Content Translation -> Translation Worlist Coordination to:
    1) Generate worklist and add content
    2) Generte translation data
    3) Release for translation
    After this, I am using Content Admin -> Portal Content Translation -> Worklist Translation for following:
    1) Load worklist for translation
    2) Translate worklist
    I am facing difficulty in Translate Worklist. The step by step method followed by me are as below:
    I am clicking on Content Admin -> Portal Content Translation -> Worklist Translation.
    I am searching Translation Worklist and selecting my Worklist
    After this I am selecting following
    Source Language - English
    Target Language - Spanish
    Then I am clicking on 'Load for Translation' button. New screen appears. In this screen, Translatable Text table is shown:
    It shows following
    Number
    Source Text <EN>
    Target Text <ES>
    Status
    Object ID
    In Status I can see 'Not Translated'. I click on Next for three times as there are three line Number (0, 1 & 2)
    The Status does not change. It remains 'Not Translated'.
    When I am using following combination
    Source Language - Raw Texts
    Target Language - Raw Texts.
    I click on Next for three times as there are three line Number (0, 1 & 2). The status changes to Translated.
    I do not know what is going wrong with my process while selecting Source Language - English & Target Language - Spanish .
    I have another question. I have to translate content of entire URL iView. How I can change the whole content of URL iView.
    In the source text I can NOT see the contents of URL iView.
    Thanks
    Stuart

    Hi Prakash,
    Did you check whether the translation has been done completely in PCD inspector? Some times you would have translated using Portal translation but it will not be written in the locale of the iView property.  Then we have to set it manually in the PCD inspector.
    Follow the procedure.
    1. navigate to System Administration -> Support -> Portal Content Directory -> PCD Inspector
    This will open the PCD inspector.
    2. "Browse Into" the iview where you have developed it.
    3. Click on the "All Props" for the iView which you need to translate.
    This will open the Properties in new window
    4. Check the property "com.sap.portal.pcm.title" what is maintained in Chinese? if it still displaying in English text against Chinese, Then you need to  Edit the property for chinese and have to give the actual chinese word.
    Note  : I hope you would have selected "Raw Text"  for Source language and "Chinese" as Target language. Pls confirm on this.
    Thanks,
    Mahendran B.

  • Searching a content area with a (java) function

    I have to write a function (possibly java) for running an
    Intermedia search on a portal content area. The function should
    be called with search parameters, returning a list/array with
    search results.
    I saw the submit_search PL/SQL function (I could even call
    directly the search URL with all the parameters), but both the
    solutions returns a quite complex html page, difficult to parse
    for getting results in a table/array.
    Any suggestion?

    The actual query that we use for advanced search is quite
    complex and subject to change from release to release.
    Depending on what you want to search on, you could try using the
    content area views that are documented in the PDK instead of an
    interMedia search.

  • How to change Portal Content by date?

    Dear Colleagues,
    We have the following requirement, a user must be able to change the content (news, the content of iviews, other info) of the portal start page(a custom developed framework page for the external portal) by selecting a date in the calendar.
    If you have any ideas or you've already worked on such a solution, please share your thoughts.
    Sincerely,

    Venkatesan
    Please do the following step by step.
    1. Logon as administrator to your portal.
    2. Go to Content Administration. In the option portal content right click to get the option New -> Iview.
    3. Select the option SAP Web dynpro Iview in the list of Iviews and give the respective properties.
    Is your WD component fetching data from backend. If yes create system before creating the Iview. To create system search for "Portal Integration of the Web Dynpro Application" on help.sap.com and you will get the exact steps.
    Do assign points if this helps.
    Please award points if this helps.

  • Searching multiple Content Server Portlets

    I am able to search single Content Server Portlet and get results using following lines of code.
    IPTSession ptSession = new InProcSession();
    ptSession.Connect(AppSettings.PTUserName(), AppSettings.PTPassword(), null);
    IPTSearchRequest ptSearchRequest = ptSession.GetSearchRequest();
    ptSearchRequest.SetSettings(PT_SEARCH_SETTING.PT_SEARCHSETTING_APPS, PT_SEARCH_APPS.PT_SEARCH_APPS_CONTENT);
    ptSearchRequest.SetSettings(PT_SEARCH_SETTING.PT_SEARCHSETTING_ASSOC_PORTLET_ID, 10468);
    IPTSearchQuery ptSearchQuery = ptSearchRequest.CreateBasicQuery(query, null);
    IPTSearchResponse ptSearchResponse = ptSearchRequest.Search(ptSearchQuery);
    return ptSearchResponse;
    However Type Cast exception comes at run time when we pass array containing multiple Portlets ID although code gets compiled
    IPTSession ptSession = new InProcSession();
    ptSession.Connect(AppSettings.PTUserName(), AppSettings.PTPassword(), null);
    IPTSearchRequest ptSearchRequest = ptSession.GetSearchRequest();
    ptSearchRequest.SetSettings(PT_SEARCH_SETTING.PT_SEARCHSETTING_APPS, PT_SEARCH_APPS.PT_SEARCH_APPS_CONTENT);

    ptSearchRequest.SetSettings(PT_SEARCH_SETTING.PT_SEARCHSETTING_ASSOC_PORTLET_ID, ar);
    IPTSearchQuery ptSearchQuery = ptSearchRequest.CreateBasicQuery(query, null);
    IPTSearchResponse ptSearchResponse = ptSearchRequest.Search(ptSearchQuery);
    return ptSearchResponse;
    It will be quite useful if anyone of you can help us if Plumtree API support this. Or else we need to build another layer to search each Portlet and merge results.

  • Users cannot see Portal Content

    Hello,
    I have installed netweaver 7.01 portal and after installation, I have created users with Content Admin role.
    But these users are still unable to see the Portal Content folder. Only administrators are able to see the portl content.
    What's wrong? Am I missing something hre?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Login as Admin user, go to Content Admin -> Portal Content -> You need to right click on Port Content folder and edit permissions.
    Here, search for the Content Admin role and add it to the permissions list. Then, assign Full Access permissions under Administrator column and check the boxes under End user and Role assigner.
    Now, the users with the content admin role should be able to see the portal content.
    Hope this works.
