Hi Mika,
I did some testing and reconfiguration with this recently and here
is my understanding of how it works:
The simple search box does indeed search ALL metadata and ALL
documents that have been filtered via filter-media and then added to the
search indices via index-all.
The advanced search option where the pull down in the first "search
type" field is "keyword" does the same thing as the simple search,
searching all metadata and documents. The other "keywords" in the
advanced search, search the indices that are built according to your
configuration in dspace.cfg. For instance, if you have the following
search.index defined in your dspace.cfg file:
search.index.1 = author:dc.contributor.author
and you pull down "author" in the first "search type" field on the
advanced search, and enter "smith" in the "search for" field, you will
only have Item links returned where metadata field contributor.author
contains the word "smith". Likewise, if you pull down "title" in the
first "search type" field on the advanced search, and enter "smith" in
the "search for" field, you will only have Item links returned where
metadata field "title" contains the word "smith".
Hope this helps!
Sue

Subject: [Dspace-tech] Passing query parameters to search
If I understand correctly, the simple search (on navigation bar)
searches from all the metadata fields and fulltext.
Is it possible to narrow the search to specific field like below , or
is fulltext always included in the search?

Thanks,
