Livesearch Macro

Am trying to use this in velocity template with 

Does not seem to work?

I love this macro! It's so helpful, and we've now just begun to use it in customized left nav's, which can be really helpful to the space.

We're encountering some problems with the drop-down list of candidate terms that appears when searching using this utility. For example, in a given wiki space:

• searching "cache" yields nothing in the drop down (even there are multiple pages with this word in the title)
• searching for "documents" = nothing in drop down (at least one page with term in title)
• searhing "document" = extensive drop-down list (including the page with 'documents' in title)

Performing the search (eg clicking 'Go') yields in appropriate search results for each of the above examples. It's only the drop-down list that isn't consistently functioning.

The problem is also happening in at least one other space in our instance of Confluence. In both cases, livesearch is inside a table as follows:

|| Search || Browse || Projects ||
| Search this wiki {livesearch:id=1|spaceKey=gregwikiprod} |

Any tips?

Is there a way to provide a search field, which searches in n spaces? Not one or all, but multiple spaces?

Just a small thing, but I was wondering if there was any way to include Mail items in the default search so that mail items show up in the drop-down?

Hello,

I tried to use this macro, but what is spaceKey? Can I assign more than one spaceKey to a livesearch? If I can, how can I write the code? Thank you.

Hi,

I would like to restrict my search to a specified space. So I use the spaceKey parameter and the drop-down menu works well.

But when I click on the "Go" button, my results are not filter by space anymore.

Is there a way to solve that problem ? (my version of Confluence is 2.9.2)

Thanks

Really kewl!  My only problem with this macro is that even though everything seems to work in IE6, I get a javascript error (exclamation inside yellow triangle) with the message: 'target.form' is null or not an object.  Have you all seen that in IE6?  I know I'm living in the past, but IE6 is still the standard where i work

Thanks,

I've run into a weird situation with my livesearch macro. I'm using the spacekey to limit it to the appropriate space.
I have several pages about meeting minutes, with the words "meeting" and "minutes" appearing in the body of the text and sometimes in the title of the page. When I start typing "meet," those pages appear in the results box; however, these results disappear if I keep typing past "meeti." If I hit "go" it takes me to a blank results page, but the pages show up if I manually remove the * wildcard from the search box.

Any idea what's happening here? It doesn't make sense to me that results disappear when I type more of a word, even though the whole word appears on the page...

since upgrading to 2.10.3 our live search macro has been behaving strangely. For example, the word "macros" appears on the title of a few pages. When searching for "macros" however, we get a null set (no results). However, when searching the singlar "macro", the pages with "macros" do appear.  Is there a bug with how stemming is working? Please advise.

Hi, same livesearch problems here. We have installed Confluence 3.02 and Themebuilder 3.3.5-M2-conf210. Workaround with Backslash works but is not really satisfying :(

Hi,

is ist possible to use the macro in the velocity-context ( like #quicksearch() ) ?

We are using livesearch within a theme builder site.  When the search is done with more that the default items and we click on the second page, we lose our theme and it goes to the default theme.  The first page of results is with our page.  Is there any way to express the number of results or make it so the second page does not go to the confluence search page

Hi,

Would love to use the livesearch macro, but I have one quick question. Is there a way to limit the search only to pages, but not users, comments, etc. I used the type=page, but it did not work. Can you help? Thanks in advance...

Hi,

Whenever I start typing a word in our livesearch (which only searches a certain space), the drop-down box displays the proper pages. However, as the word gets longer, the pages disappear as if none of them contain the word. Then, if I press "Go," the search results page doesn't have any results, and the search term I typed has an asterik added to the end. If I remove the asterik and press "Go" again, the search results are correct. Is there any way to fix that?

Thanks!

I am trying to make the livesearch macro wider but cannot find how to do this. Is there any way such as editing the macro file itself to make this happen?

Situation:

Whenever I tried to search a word/content in our confluence it is giving me only the result of the page which has its result on the body, but whenever I clicked it, it doesn't direct me to the exact word. 

How I will be able to get this search feature in our confluence since I am using composition plugin with cloaking feature?

When I try to search with multiple words (eg. "Buy some milk"), the dropdown list under the search box is no more updated after I typed the first space in my query. Is it possible to get a preview with multiple words in a query ?

Thanks.
