Important!

The search only considers content and forms whose Content Searchable box is checked. The Content Searchable box appears on the View Properties screen for the content. Also, the status of the content must be Approved.


Specifying the Search Word or Phrase

In the Search Text field, enter one or more words that you want to find within the selected file types. The search uses these words to find and return content.

Entering one or more words here is optional. That is, you can use fields on the lower portion of the screen to find content without knowing any words contained in the assets. For example, you can find every HTML content block that was modified by a certain user within the last 30 days.

If you check off HTML and Form content, you can enter no search criteria and get a list of all HTML and Form content blocks on your site.


Important!

The asset search requires at least one criterion. As examples, you could enter text into the Search Text field, some characters contained in the Title, or a minimum Document Size of 1000 kilobytes.
