We're on DSpace 5.x using default Solr/Discovery search. In case you haven't found it, the appropriate documentation is at https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC5x/Discovery#Discovery-ModifyingtheDiscoveryUserInterface%28config/spring/api/discovery.xml%29 When you say to "make dc.description.provenance searchable", it means to create a "search.index.n" config? We already have this one: search.index.17 = descriptions:dc.description.* However, I can't search on "dc.description.provenance" using the searchbox with queries like "Submitted by Valquiria Rosa" or "Approved for entry into archive by Eliana Cunha". Is this configuration effective only for Legacy Lucene/DB search or "search.index.n" also defines searchable metadata for Solr/Discovery? The search.index settings are not used by Discovery. We also have this settings regarding provenance: dspace.cfg metadata.hide.dc.description.provenance = true I believe this setting now only controls the item page behaviour, though it may also be used elsewhere (eg OAI). discovery.xml <bean id="org.dspace.discovery.configuration.DiscoveryConfigurationService" class="org.dspace.discovery.configuration.DiscoveryConfigurationService"> <property name="toIgnoreMetadataFields">     <map>     <entry>         <key><util:constant static-field="org.dspace.core.Constants.ITEM"/></key>         <list>         <value>dc.description.provenance</value>         </list>     </entry>     </map> </property> </bean> This setting causes the search behaviour you're seeing -- it makes dc.description.provenance not indexed in solr and hence not searchable via Discovery. To make a custom field searchable, you don't have to do anything -- it will be searchable by default. You only need to add a new search filter (as described in the documentation linked above) if you want to be able to search specifically in that field via the "advanced filters" functionality. cheers, Andrea -- Dr Andrea Schweer Lead Software Developer, ITS Information Systems The University of Waikato, Hamilton, New Zealand +64-7-837 9120 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "DSpace Technical Support" group.
