Re: limiting search to certain pages only?

[Jurjan-Paul Medema]

Hello Khue,
Thank you, that looks really helpful!
Can I now assume that a negation to exclude pages would also work?, like 
for instance:

        searchQuery + " AND NOT (pageid:2 OR pageid:3)"
(I would appreciate some pointer to a reference for this syntax (mixin 
of Lucene and Jahia??) Lacking documentation, a source file would do fine.)

Now I see two alternative approaches forward:
1. add JavaScript to the search form (through onclick() ), which will 
add the extra string to the value in the input box.
Does anybody know how to do this (changing a form's value) without the 
value *visually* changing in that input box?

2. modify the Jahia search engine to add the extra string before the 
search is carried out.
Can somebody point me to the right file for doing this?

I would prefer the first approach, as I am not in favor of extending the 
code for the general case with a very specific situation...

Thanks again, yours,
 Jurjan-Paul

Hi,
one possible way is construct you search query with all allowed pages,
   

like
 

:
searchQuery + " AND (pageId:10 OR pageId:11 OR pageId:20...)"

Hello list,
Would it be possible to tell the search engine to only search certain
pages (excluding the top level for instance?)
(Filtering the results after the search almost works OK, except for the
paging, wich is then based on a wrong hit count...)
(This is the JSP snippet I am using right now:
           <form name="searchForm" method="get"
action="<%=jData.gui().html().drawSearchLauncher()%>">
             <p>
                <input name="search" class="formVeldLogin" type="text"
/>&nbsp;&nbsp;
                <input class="button" value="zoeken" type="submit" />
             </p>
           </form>
)
Thanks,
 Jurjan-Paul
