Container Search and Indexing

Vawiko_Astwa

Hello,

I'm using 2.0.10

I've been trying to figure out how to configure my search_indexing.conf in order to be able to search by sub-elements in a container.

I have a container called alternate_location and it has two elements
type (list) - box, folder, cabinet
value (text)

Currently when I search like this:
ca_objects.ca_attribute_alternate_location.type:box AND ca_objects.ca_attribute_alternate_location.value:1

It returns results where any type is equal to 1 rather than results were just type = box and value = 1

Same with advanced search, when I select a specific list value from the drop down and enter a value, it searches across all types rather than just the one selected.

Is this functionality currently supported. I've tried an number of different options in my search_indexing.conf, but can't seem to get the right syntax to index these so they can be search independently.

Any help is much appreciated!

Hi, if the container is called alternate_location, you should call elements inside by ca_objects.alternate_location.type and ca_objects.alternate_location.value.

Thanks, yes syntax for the search that works the same as the one I mentioned above, but the results are the same.
ca_objects.alternate_location.type:box AND ca_objects.alternate_location.value:1. returns results where ca_objects.alternate_location.type = box or folder or cabinet. It is not returning records where ONLY type:box.

In other words I trying to find a way to search my container to find out what records are in ca_objects.alternate_location.type = box

I've tried various browse configurations as well and none of the searches or browses respects the filter based on the list item = box

Vawiko_Astwa does it only return objects with type box if you leave the value out? If it doesn’t then ‘box’ might be the wrong list item value.

Have you tried using quotation marks? Like: ca_objects.alternate_location.type:"box"
