    Multiple search fields with specific searches

    API Questions

    Hello,

    I would like to implement multiple search fields on my website.

    At the moment i have a search field in the header of the website that searched the whole website which is fine.
    I would like to include another search to sit in a "portal" within the website in a different location.

    Do you know how i can get the "portal search" only to search a specific node "portal" and all sub nodes.

    Thanks,

    Gary,

    In the index you have path field. Its not searchable however if you use GatheringNode data event you can inject in a searchable path then do a query on it so that only get nodes that have specific id in the path in your case that id will be id of your specific section. See my vid and slides on GatheringNodeData usage http://umbracoukfestival.co.uk/videos-photos/ 

    Regards

    Im sorry but i'm a bit of a beginner. I've looked at your presentation and seen this.

    Path is in index as 1,1056,1078 not
    tokenised
    • Add new field with , replaced with
    space

    Can you expand on this?

    Gary,

    Take a look at code in this post http://thecogworks.co.uk/blog/posts/2012/november/examiness-hints-and-tips-from-the-trenches-part-2/ you need to implement GatheringNodeData event and add new searchable path field with the , stripped out.
