Forum OpenACS Development: Search pkg

Collapse
Posted by Iuri Sampaio on
Hi there,

Would OpenACS Search support multiple instances, each one inside a respective acs-subsite?

If so, why doesn't the pkg display as an option to be mounted ?

I have a search instance mounted at /, and now I want to mount it under iurix.com/1contact/ but search application doesn't show as an option to mount under 1contact subsite.

Best wishes

The search package is defined as a singleton (i.e. mount-able at a single location). Therefore /search can't be used from multiple subsites. one approach would be to provide a search page under acs-subsite/www, but probably, this will need more work in filter results etc. to reach full subsite awareness.

See e.g. the following discussion: https://openacs.org/forums/message-view?message_id=456882

It seems I achieve the very same end, but from another approach.

In that case, I must set up a fresh oacs install from scratch for evex.co. Otherwise, I'll end up having too much core customization.
