Search Settings
This setting controls behavior for end-user search in the generated output. The settings in this category are defined as follows:
Minimum character amount to execute search
Specifies the minimum amount of characters needed to execute a search. When users type the minimum amount of characters specified in this setting, an initial list of search results will begin to be displayed in the search results area. Reducing the value of this setting will make the progressive search begin to display sooner with suggested results. However, it will also make the help download file size larger and potentially slower for your end-users the first time they access the online help. After the first access of any page in the online help, the end-user’s browser will start downloading the search files and cache them for use when the user does perform a search. The cached search files may have the effect of making the download size not an issue depending on end-user behavior.
Progressive search
This setting allows search result suggestions to begin being displayed before a user completes their search term input. Specifies whether progressive search is enabled/disabled.
Search result count
Allows end-users to see how many search results there are for a given search term input. Specifies whether search result count is enabled/disabled.
Search scope filtering
This setting creates a dropdown menu displaying all the groups and sub-groups defined in your ePublisher project within the Document Manager. This menu is available to your end-users next to the search input in the toolbar. End-users can then select which group(s) they want to perform a search within. Search results will not be displayed for groups that are not selected. Specifies whether search scope filtering is enabled/disabled.
