Hi, I'm trying to understand how to refine search results for a site using Company Directory and News for most of the websites content.

How would I restrict the search results to only show CD and News entries.

Any help will be much appreciated.

As far as I remember there is a nice and clear example in the search result template itself. Check it in the DesignManager.

Hi Jos
Yes, I saw that. it shows:

Code: Select all

{if $entry->module == 'News'}{News action='detail' article_id=$entry->modulerecord detailpage='News'}

So I added:

Code: Select all

<li>{if $entry->module == 'CompanyDirectory'}{CompanyDirectory action='detail' article_id=$entry->modulerecord detailpage='entry-details'}{$entry->title} - <a href="{$entry->url}">View Result</a>{/if}</li>

I get a page not found error

There's gotta be something pretty basic that I'm missing.
Any clues?

Thanks
Simon

There is a parameter you can add to your Search tag for only showing only results from specified modules if that's what you're after...

Code: Select all


(optional) modules="null" - Limit search results to values indexed from the specified (comma separated) list of modules
