Search

How can we improve search funcionality?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the “My feedback” filter and select “My open ideas”.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

      • Alternate search APIs built-in

        It should be easier to utilize a third-party search API like Google, Yahoo, etc. Instead of having to build our own, it would save a bunch of work if we could just switch the site Search provider to Google during installation / configuration.

        • Search must include file system

          SmartSearch only works with Office docs and PDFs stored in the db, eg. attachments. However, media libraries store files in the file system and thus cannot be searched. For performance and other reasons, media libraries are the preferred method of storing files in large installations where one is dealing with thousands of docs. If Kentico wants to play in the enterprise CMS field, this lack is a major problem.

            • Document crawler to only read part "main content" of the document

              I love the new document crawler... however, there are some key terms in the header and footer which cause ALL documents to show up in some very important searches. It would be nice to specify sections of a page to be indexed by the crawler:

              <div id="wrapper">
              <header>Site nave and stuff</header>

              <!--@@SMART_SEARCH_BEGIN@@-->
              <div role="main">Main content here</div>
              <!--@@SMART_SEARCH_END@@-->

              <footer>Footer text/nav here</footer>
              </div>
