NoteThis section explains how to use the search function on a browser page. For information about inserting the search function into an Ektron CMS400.NET Web template, refer to the Ektron CMS400.NET Developer Manual.
NoteThis section describes the search on your Web site. To learn about searching through the folders of your Content Management System, see Search Content Folder.
Ektron CMS400.NET has a search function that can be easily integrated into any Ektron CMS400.NET template. The search command looks through your XHTML Web site content and assets, then displays links to the content found by the search.
Important!Each content block and asset includes a Content Searchable field. The search only considers content blocks if this field is checked.
When you insert the search function onto a template, it looks something like this on the Web site.
When performing a search, the user enters one or more words into the text box, selects the necessary search preferences, then clicks the Search button.
Your system administrator can add custom search fields that only appear if a user is logged in. For more information, see Metadata.
