Products.SilvaFind 3.0.4

Search extension for Silva CMS

Silva Find is an extension for Silva to allow easy creation of search forms and result pages, both for users of the public site and for authors in the SMI.

Authors can add a Silva Find object anywhere and define which fields to make searchable by end users of the public site, and/or which fields to limit to a preset value. Authors also can determine which fields should be displayed in the search results. All metadata set/fields are supported.

By default all possible custom search criterion fields and result fields are available in the SMI. Besides that, the elements of all metadata sets are also available as result fields. If these fields are indexed in the catalog, they can also be used as search criterion fields. All available fields can be enabled/disabled in the SMI.

Besides this behavior, SilvaFind also allows you to manually override the list of search criteria.

Changes:

• KeyError for meta_type when doing empty searches.

• SilvaFind search was searching on all “search content” fields, and ignoring the checkboxes.
