Searching in a Particular Catalog/Store

[Gaurav kalia]

Hi All

In Ofbiz we have keyword search functionality, right now when I search
using any keyword it search in all the Catalogs/Stores and return the
result.

I would like to know how can I configure it to search in a particular
Catalog/Store.

Please suggest

TIA

Regards

Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,

You have to pass prodCatalogId to configured search to particular
Catalog/Store.
Please refer keywordsearch.groovy for more reference.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Deepak

Is there any configuration file for this or can I configure this from Admin area.

Please suggest

No Gaurav, there isn't a config. file or admin area for this.

If you check the "Advanced Search" form, the result of the search is only for the current catalog. Test it here: http://demo-trunk.ofbiz.apache.org/ecommerce/control/advancedsearch
That's because this form has a hidden input named SEARCH_CATALOG_ID with the current catalog as value.

You can solve the problem in the "Default search" form adding the same hidden input (modifying the FTL)

Also, it would be good share this improvement creating an issue in Jira and adding the patch.

Cheers,

Hi David

Thanks for the help.

I have tried using the hidden parameter "SEARCH_CATALOG_ID" in keyworksearchbox.ftl and it worked very well.

I will create an issue and will add this as a patch.

But would like to clear my one more doubt if I can have more than one catalog for a web application does that means it will still look into the currently selected catalog or preciously we can not search in more than one catalog.

Please suggest

Regards

Gaurav

this is setup in the catalog section. See the demo data
/specialpurpose/ecommerce/data
you add other searches to the catalog and then there is a drop down box
that list the catalogs to search, on the search page.
see where it says choose catalog.

Hi All

After adding

<input type="hidden" name="SEARCH_CATALOG_ID" value="${currentCatalogId}">

in keywordsearchbox.ftl the search is not working properly,  now i am not able to see any product after click on find button and i can see an exception in logs as well but if i remove this then search works with no exception, may be i have done something wrong.

Please suggest

Thanks

my guess is your  added line is overriding the catalog selection which
has a default.
