    SearchResults with macro pages

    Hey everyone,

    Would you please check my code and let me know what I'm missing to show the search results on the page?

    My partial view macro file,

    @using Examine.LuceneEngine.SearchCriteria
    @using System
    @using System.Linq
    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
    @{
    
        var searchQuery= Request.QueryString["query"];
        if(String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(searchQuery))
            {
                 searchQuery = "";
            }
        var searcher = Examine.ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection["ExternalSearcher"];
        var searchCriteria = searcher.CreateSearchCriteria();
        var query = searchCriteria.GroupedOr( new []{"nodeName", "name", "title", "bodyText"},searchQuery).Compile();
        var SearchResults = searcher.Search(query).Where(x => x["__IndexType"] == "content").ToList();
    }
        @if (SearchResults.Any())
        {
                <ul class="search-results-box">
                    @foreach (var result in SearchResults)
                    {
                        var node = Umbraco.TypedContent(result.Id);
                        var pathIds = result["__Path"].Split(',');
                        var path = Umbraco.TypedContent(pathIds).Where(p => p != null).Select(p => new { p.Name }).ToList();
    
                        if (node != null)
                        {
                         <div class="product col-sm-6 col-md-3 col-xs-6">
                                 <a href="@node.Url" title="@node.Name">@node.Name</a>
                         </div>
                        }
                    }
                 </ul>
        }
        else
        {
         <p>
    
          @if(!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(searchQuery))
            {
             <text> 'No results found for : @searchQuery</text>
             }
         </p>
        }
    

    My Search Results page(Where I want to show the results);

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoTemplatePage
    @using ContentModels = Umbraco.Web.PublishedContentModels;
    @{
        Layout = "Master.cshtml";
    }
    <div class="container-fluid">
        <div class="container">
            <div class="row">
                <div class="col-lg-6 pull-left">
                    @CurrentPage.bodyText
                </div>
                <div class="col-lg-offset-1">
    
                </div>
                <div class="col-lg-3 pull-right">
    
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
    

    My Navigation page's related part for searching;

    <div class="col-lg-3 input-group">
        <form action="@Umbraco.Content(1149).Url()" method="post" target="_blank">
            <input type="search" class="form-control" placeholder="Search" name="query" />
            <span class="input-group-btn"><button class="btn btn-default" type="submit"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span></button></span>
        </form>
    </div>
    

    I did the configuration on ~/config/ExamineSettings.config and ~/config/ExamineIndex.config

    Used this link; https://our.umbraco.com/documentation/reference/searching/examine/quick-start

    My macro is allowed in rich text editors and my text editor's alias is bodyText.

    What am I missing?

    (Ignore the styling, they are just for proper look)

    Hey Ravi, Thanks for reply.

    I've checked Examine Index and Examine settings on developer tab as well. It seem to not working still.

    Still not seeing when I search something.

    My searchResults page shows the body text but does not include the macro in there. Still confused.

    Thanks in advance

    It doesn't seem like searching whatever I wrote in the

      if(String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(searchQuery))
            {
                 searchQuery = "";
            }
        var searcher = Examine.ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection["ExternalSearcher"];
        var searchCriteria = searcher.CreateSearchCriteria();
        var query = searchCriteria.GroupedOr( new []{"nodeName", "name", "title", "bodyText"},searchQuery).Compile();
        var SearchResults = searcher.Search(query).Where(x => x["__IndexType"] == "content").ToList();
    }
        @if (SearchResults.Any())
        {
                <ul class="search-results-box">
                    @foreach (var result in SearchResults)
                    {
                        var node = Umbraco.TypedContent(result.Id);
                        var pathIds = result["__Path"].Split(',');
                        var path = Umbraco.TypedContent(pathIds).Where(p => p != null).Select(p => new { p.Name }).ToList();
    
                        if (node != null)
                        {
                         <div class="product col-sm-6 col-md-3 col-xs-6">
                                 <a href="@node.Url" title="@node.Name">@node.Name</a>
                         </div>
                        }
                    }
                 </ul>
        }
        else
        {
         <p>
    
          @if(!String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(searchQuery))
            {
             <text> 'No results found for : @searchQuery</text>
             }
         </p>
        }
    

    It jumps straight to else no matter I search. Even though the words I am sure they are in the content.

    I am so new in Umbraco, I am just fallowing a video set. But got stuck because I hate going on without solving the problem.

    I saw other search methods but I really want to figure this out.

    Thank you

    so when you post the page to the macro you can see the search term in the macro

    So

    is posting and you can see that value in your macro here: var searchQuery= Request.QueryString["query"]; if(String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(searchQuery)) { searchQuery = ""; }

    No searchQuery doesn't carry the value I wrote

    Fixed the problem. Took me a day and a half.

    I changed

     var searchQuery= Request.QueryString["query"];
    

    to

    string searchQuery= Request["query"];
    

    Now It's working!!

    Thanks for the help though :)
