Top-Level Search Scope not showing in Sub-Site

Posted By: Posted Date: August 26, 2010 Points: 0 Category :SharePoint

I've got a site 'B' created under site 'A' in SharePoint. When I'm at Site A, I can search and find things that exist in both A&B. However, when I'm in B, the 'highest' search scope I can pick is 'B.' I'd like to be able to select one step higher so that I can search A&B from any page. Is this possible?

change people picker to a site level scope

Hi NG,

I created a couple of sites inside one site collection.
Every site uses its own permission groups.
Now I want to constrain the people picker to use only one specified AD - group as search base.
I want to define one AD - group per site.
I found some basic information about

stsadm –o setproperty –pn peoplepicker-searchadcustomfilter –pv … -url …

Is this the right way?
Is this command working on a site level?
How could I delete filters which are not necessary anymore?

Thanks in advance

Search Scope Default to "this site"

I am trying to limit the search on a SharePoint site to each individual site collection.. These sites are all on the same server. I have found a way to do this by following the article below –

http://amatterofdegree.typepad.com/a_matter_of_degree/2009/06/how-to-make-this-site-the-default-sharepoint-search-scope.html

I change the dropdownmode on the masterpage to DropDownMode = "ShowDD_DefaultContextual" this works for all my publishing sites.

Search Scope - Default to "This Site"

I have created a root level site collection via MOSS.ÃÂ I have then added a site directory with both WSS and MOSS sites created underneath the site directory.ÃÂ The default search for all of these sites is "All Sites".ÃÂ Is there any way to make the default search for the team sites under the site directory "This Site"?

The issue is when users search for a topic using the "All Sites" scope, the results page is at the root level and it takes them out of their team site.ÃÂ They then have to navigate back to the team site.ÃÂ

I am assuming that I am creating a WSS site when I use the "Team Site" template under "Create SIte" in the site collection page.ÃÂ Is this correct?

Error: "The search service is currently offline." when adding a rule to a site search scope

We have a portal on our SharePoint farm in which the users want to create a new search scope for that portal only (rather than me creating a global search scope). We are able to create the scope without problem, however when we click "add rules" I get the error message: "The search service is currently offline."

This isn't true though as the search server/indexer is fine and online. We are having problems with our logs so theres no way to troubleshoot this, but I'm wondering if anyone has any insight into the issue.

Thanks.

Mysite Search Scope

Hi,
I have four search scopes in the Shared services SSP. But in sharepoint 2007 mysite i see only All sites and People search scopes in the dropdown by default. I want to enable other two search scopes for all Mysites. I know how to enable search scopes individually but i would like enable search scope globally for all Mysites in my sharepoint webapplication.

Please suggest.

FAST Search for SP2010 scope setting works but not getting results.

Hello,

I am trying this from last two days , but it does not work. I have created two scopes for FAST Search Query SSA , they appear in search center , but I am not getting any results back. I see them being fired in the FAST query log.

First one is a simple one:

New-SPEnterpriseSearchQueryScope -SearchApplication "FAST Query SSA" -Name DCO -Description "All DCO Documents" -DisplayInAdminUI 1 -ExtendedSearchFilter "ContentSource:DCO"

Content source is a managed property. and i can just query "contentsource:dco" from the text box which gives me results.

When I fire the query i see it in FAST Search query log

"GET /cgi-bin/search?qtf_keyword:context=ssgid%3a%3a4d020606-8532-45d8-b09a-db11283cccb4%7cSPS-Location%3a%3a%7cSPS-Responsibility%3a%2c%3a%7c&rpf_navigation:hits=50&rpf_navigation:enabled=True&spell=suggest&qtf_parsekw:timezone=10&type=kwall&qtf_teaser:dynlength=185&resubmitflags=8192&language=en&query=CASHIERING&sortby=%2bdefault&qtf_lemmatize=True&offset=0&version=14.0.0.0&collapseon=batvdocumentsignature&collapsenum=1&rpf_sortsimilar:enabled=False&qtf_parsekw:locale=eng&hits=10&rpf_navigation:navigators=format(cutoff%3d0%2f0%2f20%2csort%3dfrequency%2fdescending)%2csitename(sort%3dfrequency%2fdescending)

Search Usage Reports Missing for Site

We have Usage Analysis enabled on our employee portal farm. The SSP in this farm crawls all local SharePoint sites and one child farm. When we view search and query reports, one of the site collections (in a dedicated web app) is missing. All other web apps/site collections appear in the search/query reports. The missing site collection is using the standard search pages and web parts - no customization with the object model that might break usage logging.

Has anyone else ran into this or know the solution?

Search does not find text in Word document stored in document library on a Report Center site within

Hello,

We have a document library on a site created off of the Report Center site template. We uploaded a Word 2007 document with the word zebra in the text. Using the search bar at the top of the page we selected This list: Our document library and searched for zebra. We received no results.

We tested the same thing on another site (site template Team site) within the same site collection and search worked fine.

Does the Report Center search function differently then the search functionality on the Team site?

Excel file not showing in search results

We have a strange issue. I have one Excel document (or at least one that I am aware of) that will not show up in search results for content within the document. I can find the document by title just fine, but when I search for words within the document I do not see it. The document was originally a 2003 Excel document and was recently converted to 2007. Other than that there isn't really anything unusual about it (some formatting stuff, but mainly just background colors and whatnot, nothing fancy). The crawl log shows the document was crawled without error. Anyone know anything else I can check on?

Search Scope Issue

Hi,

I have 8 web applications containing different sites. One of the web applications is hosting a site called pmsportal.

Currently search results display files from all sites and from all web applications having matching results. That is like google!!! Sweet!!! BUT its over-performing! The owners of the pmsportal want search results to display only results from within their site ONLY...how do I do that? In the SSP Search Settings I have only two(2) Content Sources defined

(1) Local Office SharePoint Server sites

(2) PeopleSoft_Data

Someone please help.

Portal Search Work - Site Collection Search Does Not

In our SharePoint installation we have an SSP which indexes local office sharepoint server sites.ÃÂ However there is a problem, although we can do portal searches which reveal search results it is not able to doÃÂ local searches at the site collection level and as aÃÂ result we are presented with the typical error below.

ÃÂ

No results matching your search were found.

Check your spelling. Are the words in your query spelled correctly?
Try using synonyms. Maybe what you're looking for uses slightly different words.
Make your search more general. Try more general terms in place of specific ones.
Try your search in a different scope. Different scopes can have different results.

I am unsure as to why this strange event is occuring.ÃÂ We do not have the WSS Search component running in the MOSS environment as the SSP service should be able to index and server search queries at the portal and local site collection level.

ÃÂ

Any thoughts to this?
