Hi,

I have built the static content for a clients site using a large number of Text/HTML modules in a standard 3 column layout. The client has asked that only content from the main ContentPane should be returned when using the SearchInput control. The question is, how do I prevent the content of a specific module i.e. all modules that are displayed in the left and right panes, from being indexed and added to the search tables? I have tried simply deleting the associated database entries for these modules, but the site re-indexes the search content and they are re-added.

Is this possible?

Regards,

Chris

You can simplely modify the TEXT/HTML module to make a new TEXT/HTML module which does not support being index.

Delete the ISearchable inteface and associated implement functions, rename the assembly name and store procedure prefix.

Seeing as the site is due to go live in about two weeks, and all content has now been loaded using the standard Text/HTML module, I was hoping there would be a solution that could work with the existing module. What you have suggested would obviously work, but time is now against me and having to update modules on over 50 pages of the site is not really an option.

Is there an alternative?

You could go into the database (desktopmodules table) and remove support for ISearchable from the Text/HTML module. I would then clear out the search tables and have it completely reindex the site.

To disable iportable you'll probably need to remove the businesscontroller information from the table, as well as change the SUPPORTED FEATURES record. This will also disable the Import/Export functionality of the module.

Thanx Chris, that sounds like a more feasible solution.
