Just started experimenting with Find, I followed the steps to create a project with Find. When I login to episerver, I see the Find option in the top menu, and underneath the options:
Manage Configure Overview
But all three lead to:
[Try again button]
Trying again changes nothing.
Find version is 9.6.0.3185. What have I done wrong?
In the sales materials there's a lot of talk about Find and automatic landing pages. Does anyone have a simple example implementation of this functionality? I don't want to reinvent the wheel if there's already som best practice example laying around somewhere...
Thanks!
Hi All,
I'm new to Episerver development, but have been a software developer for a few years now.
Does anyone know if its possible to perform a "Free Text Search" against multiple types and without declaring specific fields/properties..?
I essentially have a list of different types that are indexed in Episerver Find, and want to itterate through them all to find a match on a given search term...can anyone help?
Cheers
Chris
Hi Everyone,
When I config application to serialize the json in camel case boosting page in find ui shows everything in undefined. if you trace the dGrid values, you can see all culumn definitions and asignments are in paskal case. so when you pass a camelCase json it result in undefined values.
I couldn't find any solution to config camel case serialization globally and fix this issue.
Hi everyone,
I'm using episerver find and I just add ServiceApi to the project. Since then UnifiedSearch stops working. I've compared the requests , and the only difference is that whenever I have serviceapi in my project, in the fillter I have following term in filter
{"term": {"UsersWithReadAccess$$string.lowercase": ""
}
},
{"terms": {"RolesWithReadAccess$$string": []
}
}and it should be like following to work:
{"term": {"UsersWithReadAccess$$string.lowercase": "msh"
}
},
{"terms": {"RolesWithReadAccess$$string": ["WebAdmins","Administrators","Everyone","Authenticated","CmsAdmins","PackagingAdmins"
]
}
}Does anyone have any Idea how to fix this?
Hello,
I am trying to get autocomplete functionality to work and have added autocomplete queries in the admin mode. I dont want it to achieve using exposing index url and wanted to achieve using MVC.
In my Find Controller I am using
var autoComplete = client.Statistics().GetAutocomplete(q); and getting result in autocomplete vairable which i have set in admin mode.
But on Ui I am not able to get it working.
I have following this thread
Hello,
I am using Episerver Find 11.1.6.4396 version.
For statistics tracking I have used .track() method in my controller and using namespace is using EPiServer.Find.Framework.Statistics;
In CMS Edit mode for Find Searches without relevant hits in statistics always show Click-through-rate (CTR) 0%
Thanks
Hi!
I have a collection of products and by convention we've added the variants as a property so they are indexed together.
What I'd like to do is project over the results and get the cheapest variant in order to retreive some data to be displayed. This prevents me from loading all variants when the search results.
Is it possible, when projecting, to filter a nested collection?
Example:
Client.Search()
.Filter(x => x.Code.Match("8801141522433"))
.FilterPriceAvailableForCurrentUser()
.Select(p => new
{
Code = p.Code,
SpecificationsList = p.ProductVariations.FirstOrDefault(v => v.Code == p.CheapestVariationCode).Specifications })
.GetResult();
The SpecificationsList is always empty because Find cannot interpret the FirstOrDefault method I guess but I can't Filter there either.
Thanks for helping out!
/Mark
We're implementing Find for a client who requires filtering on dynamic attributes at the ProductVariant level.
IE
A possible search would be searching for a Product that has a ProductVariant that has both Attributes with the combination {"Color":"Brown"} and {"Material":"Wood"}. From what I understand, Nested Queries, facets and filters only allow for one additional level and expect to check a property at that level. I've found examples where Dictionaries work, but this would limit us to one key value pair per attribute which I would prefer not to do.
Is there another alternative to this? I've seen others searching for a similar feature set, but haven't found a solution that doesn't limit us to a Dictionary. Searching by ProductVariant and finding distinct Products is not an option.
When sorting results based on a string, it doesn't seem like the stringcomparer used takes culture into consideration.
"Abc", "Bcd", "Åäö" comes out in the order "Abc", "Åäö", "Bcd".
Am I missing something, or does anyone know how to solve this?
Hello,
I am using Episerver Find 11 and implementing the autocomplete functuionality using Jquery as mention on episerver document http://world.episerver.com/documentation/Items/Developers-Guide/EPiServer-Find/11/search-statistics/search-statistics/
This is my search button
<input id="search" oninput="myFunction()" type="search" tabindex="1" name="q" value="@Model.SearchQuery" />
This is my script code.
<script type="text/javascript">
function myFunction() {
$.get('/find_v2/_autocomplete?prefix=q&size=4', function (data) {
alert(JSON.stringify(data));
$.each(data.Hits, function (index, value) {
$('#search').append(value.Query);
}
)
}, "jsonp");
}</script>
When I check data using url http://localhost:55363/find_v2/_autocomplete?prefix=ho&size=5 on my localhost it gives me following results.
{"status":"ok","hits":[{"query":"homeclass","type":"editorial"},{"query":"homemade","type":"editorial"},{"query":"homemaid","type":"editorial"},{"query":"homework","type":"editorial"},{"query":"homeland","type":"editorial"}]}but when I run the code on UI and search, in alert I am geeting 0 hits and alert is showing
{"status":"ok","hits":[]}Also In my controller for tracking I am using .track() method.
var unifiedSearch = SearchClient.Instance.UnifiedSearchFor(q).UsingSynonyms().ApplyBestBets().Track().Skip(skipNumber).Take(pageSize);
Thanks in advance,
Hi,
I am having an issue indexing PDFs which resides in global asset folder: they are not indexed.
What is the default behavior when Episerver Find indexes global assets? (which url are they being index with?)
Have anyone any work arounds for indexing global assets running multi-sites?
--
I hoped I could point to a "default site" to resolve a full URL for a PDF - but seems like, it does not exist out-of-the-box.
What I do get: an exception registered in the log when running the indexer.
I think the problem is, that Find cannot index items, such as PDFs, which reside in global assets folder when running in multi-site-environment.
Background:
We have multi-site setup with sites like "SiteA.com" and "SiteB.com". If I try to download a PDF from global asset via Episerver admin interface, it will be downloaded from the context/site I am currently on.
But, when indexing (EPiServer Find Content Indexing Job), I am not on any site - and I am guessing it breaks.
Note: It works for PDFs in "For this site".
Exception:
What the message in the "History"-tab tells me:
An exception occurred while indexing content 1890: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. (see log for more information)
What the error-log tells me:
2017-07-03 17:02:27,541 [111] ERROR EPiServer.Find.Cms.ContentIndexer: WIN-XXXXXXXX: An exception occurred while indexing content 1890: Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation.

It seems that something is null, when call ContentExternalUrl ..

Hello,
I have implemented Episerver Find autocomplete functionality using Jquery/Ajax
<script language="javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$("#search").autocomplete({
source: function (request, response) {
$.ajax({
url: "/find_v2/_autocomplete?prefix=" + request.term + "&size=5",
dataType: "jsonp",
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
success: function (data) {
response($.map(data.hits, function (item) {
return {
value: item.query
};
}));
}
});
},
minLength: 2
});
});</script>When I type ho in search box I get following results
homeland
homemade
homesecurity
homemaid
homemaker
but I am getting search results on prefix...
Is there any way or workaround so that I can get suggestions for completed word.
Example: If I search for me in search textbox I should get following results
homeland
homemade
homesecurity
homemaid
homemaker
I want autocomplete suggestion to work for all characters
Hello,
I am using Episerver CMS 9.9 and Episerver Find(Version 11.1.6.4396) for search functionality in our Blog.
I have a requirement where I want to access/index Blog pages(page type) properties(Images and other define property) in Episerver Find search results. Currently in the search results we are only able to show Title, Excerpt and Link.
So Is it possible to index other page type properties like images etc. and display them in search results.
Thanks in advance.
When an episerver page is published or edited, a reference to the page is added to the SQL table tblFindIndexQueue and then the rows in this table are processed.
At some periods of the year our editors publish a large number of large documents (equal to some hundred A4 pages each), and the indexing queue grows large because its items are processed quite slowly.
If we do a full reindex using "EPiServer Find Content Indexing Job" large documents like this are reindexed much, much faster. Is there any settings, or magic, that can speed up the slow indexing queue?
Hi,
We are currently facing constant issues of site going down for almost on everyday for Production Site. This happenes almost at every 3 hours of time gap which is the duration set to run the Episerver.Find Reindexing job on the CMS.

Hi!
I'm using the Episerver.Find.Commerce to index my Commerce site, but I only get product and variations in one language.
What am I missing?
The index has all the existing languages included and there are a lot of products and variations translated but still there is no sign of them in Find index. I have also set up two local sites under Manage Websites. One for english and one for swedish and they are nicely showing products and variations in the right language.
Am I missing some configuration maybe?
Thanks!

We have detected some words are registered as synonyms without us adding them manually. One example is "rus" (Norwegian for "intoxication") and "fyll" (Norwegian for binge drinking and "fill" as in "fill in the form").
Is this documented anywhere, and how do we get rid of it?
Hi
As the subject says: is it possible to get a list on the most popular searches for a specific time period?

Hi,
I have a few questions about epifind and access control.
While showing search results, we have to limit access to certain users / groups. In the documentation (http://find.episerver.com/Documentation/episerver-cms-integration-access-rights), there is a method "RolesWithReadAccess" to filter out users / groups.
Thanks.
