UI Questions

Hi

I have viewed all the Umbraco TV videos on the Examine search and still having problems with my search return.

Basically I'm trying to exclude some nodes from the search, but when I perform the search ALL the nodes are returned that match the serach term.

Here is my files:

EXAMINEINDEX.CONFIG:

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<ExamineLuceneIndexSets>
    
    <IndexSet SetName="InternalIndexSet" IndexPath="~/App_Data/TEMP/ExamineIndexes/Internal/">

Could anyone help please?

I think the problem is how do you performance a search, not how do you index the data.

So if you can post the code you used, that would be better.

Do you mean this bit?

@using Examine;

@* Get the search term from query string *@
@{var searchTerm = Request.QueryString["search"];}
@{var results = ExamineManager.Instance.Search(searchTerm, true); }

@{if (results.TotalItemCount == 0)
{
    <p>No results found</p>
}
else
{
    <ul class="search-results">
        @foreach (var result in results)
        {
            <li>
                @result.Fields["nodeTypeAlias"]
                <a href="@umbraco.library.NiceUrl(result.Id)">
                    @result.Fields["nodeName"]
                </a>
            </li>

        }
        </ul>
    }
}

Hello Lee,

I faced the same problem with no luck, but here is a workaround (in my case I only want to return result of document type "Photo")

@{
var allresults = ExamineManager.Instance.Search(searchTerm, true);
var results = allresults.Where(a => a.Fields["nodeTypeAlias"] == "umbGalleryPhoto");
}

I wish there is some solution for this issue

Hi all,

Just add the SearchProviderCollection name you defined in the ExamineSetting.config as bellow and you are good to go.

  var results = ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection["YourSearchProvider"].Search(searchTerm, true);
