Search

Using the Manage Site tool:

1. click Update Search
2. click OK

*note - when you click OK, your OpenEdit Website will download and install the Site Search Plug-in. This may take a few minutes.

Crawling Your Web Site Links

Edit the /search/search.xml file

<search>
        <starturl>http://www.openedit.org/index.html</starturl>
        <allow>http://www.openedit.org/</allow>
        <allow>http://openedit.org/</allow>
 </search>

Scheduling the Crawler

The index tool must be setup to run on a timer. Edit or create a file called /WEB-INF/scheduler.xml:

<configuration>
        <action period="24h" startdelay="10m" path="/search/admin/crawl.html" />
</configuration>

You can also force a reindex by going to this path as the administrator: /search/admin/crawl.html.

Searching Your Site

The search is triggered from this link /search/query.html that contains a simple query form on it that you can put any place on you web site.

We recommend adding this to your layout file: $pages.include("/search/query.html")

The results page can be customized by editing the files within the /search directory.
