Dynamic content in SearchText

Vote:
 

Hi,


Dynamic content isn't renderd in SearchText extension. I guess that's fine. The span surrounding the DC is removed but not the actual content in it. So if a page has the PagePropertyPlugin and fetches a property from another page the text "" gets indexed. I think this should be removed also.

Good point. I will look into that.

Johan, have you found this with the CMS 6R2 integration or 7 integration?

Reason I'm asking is because I can see this happening for 6R2 but for 7 dynamic content *should* be rendered and indexed as XhtmlStrings are indexed as the return value of ToHtmlString(AnonymousPrincipalDude).

6R2 Joel. I guess some Regex-magic can get rid of the curly braces. I've already overridden SearchText and added some own content, so it wouldn't be a big effort to fix that.

But I thought I'd check with you guys first and see if you had a solution to the problem.

Hi!

Not sure if it's related but there is a bug that the page property dynamic content does not handle rendering when calling prop.ToString() in EPiServer 7.

Ok, here is my solution... first remove the default implementation of SearchText and then add our.

SearchClient.Instance.Conventions.ForInstancesOf<PageData>()
    .ExcludeField(page => page.SearchText()) // Exclude the default SearchText
    .IncludeField(page => page.SearchText(true)); // Include our extened SearchText

And the actual implementation of our SearchText

public static string SearchText(this PageData page, bool extended)
{
    StringBuilder content = new StringBuilder();

    // Removes dynamic content plugins
    string text = Regex.Replace(page.SearchText(), @"\{\w+\}", string.Empty);

    content.AppendLine(text);

    // Add extra content from "tab pages"
    foreach (var tab in DataFactory.Instance.GetChildren(page.PageLink))
    {
        if (tab.PageTypeID == Settings.Instance.TabPageTypeID)
        {
            content.AppendLine(tab["TabHeading"] as string);
            content.AppendLine(tab["TabBody"] as string);
        }
    }

    return content.ToString().StripHtml();
}
