Sharepoint search query to only show Site Pages (or a new Wiki library) - search

I've got a new SharePoint Teams site that I'll be building out as a knowledge repository. We'll be creating articles in the "Site Pages" area, though happy to use a new Wiki Page Library if that makes it easier.
I'm trying to amend the Search Query used in the "All" vertical, so that it shows only results from the Site Pages. To test this, I've created a word document in the documents section and named it "Apples WORD.docx" and a Wiki page called "Apples WIKI". When I search for "Apples", I should only see "Apples WIKI" in my results.
I can't seem to figure out the query required to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

So I've got this working now.
First I renamed an existing managed property by doing the following.
Go to the Site Settings, then Under the 'Site Collection Administration' go to "Search Schema".
Find an available RefinableStringXX managed property; edit it and give it an Alias. Add a mapping to "ContentTypeID".
Back out to the Site Settings then under 'Web Designer Galleries' click on "Site content types".
Find "Wiki Pages" and click on it to find the Content Type ID (which was 0x010108).
Back out to the Site Settings then under 'Microsoft Search', click on "Configure Search Settings".
Click on Verticals, then double click on the vertical that you want to edit. Click the Edit button at the bottom of the page.
Click on 'Query' and enter the text "ContentTypeID:0x010108*"
Save the vertical.
By editing the "All" vertical, the default 'current site' search from the site's homepage now only shows Wiki Page articles.

Maybe you could try adding the search vertical to the search navigation web part to set up a search page for displaying Site Pages.

List Search Box getting hidden in SharePoint 2013 List View WebPart

I am trying to add a list view webpart to my page in sharepoint 2013. I edited the webpart and checked 'Display Search Box' option in the miscellaneous section. But Once I finish editing and save the page, page refreshes and loads. But the search box is not coming at all.
I had a similar problem which occurred since I modified the styles inside the list view.
A few questions...
Have you modified the styles inside the view that webpart is using.
Is the list a new one or migrated?
Is this a Publishing site site or other?
You are using enterprise version or other?
Ensure you are using the Default style , any other style the search box does not appear

How to restore "view item" web part for Sharepoint List

I'm using Sharepoint 2010 foundation. We have a list available on the site that we use to manage work items. Normally, the options to view detailed list content are "View Item" and "Edit Item". It looks like someone accidentally deleted the list view for the "view item" page, so that when anyone opens an item, all they see is the list item title and a big blank box in the middle. Does anyone know how to restore the list view for a single list item so that we can view the item contents?
Alright; if your form was a non modified-form without further extensions or modifications you have only a few clicks ahead of you, otherwise: you better have a backup.
Disclaimer: I am using the german version of SPD, but the controls are at the same positions as in the English version. See screenshots for clarifications
Open up SharePoint Designer 2010
Open your SP Site
Open the list in question
Click on "new" (see Screenshot below)
Fill out the form (Enter name, check form to view, and default form)
Boom - you're good to go again. Save it.

Sharepoint Breadcrumb showing the old/original Page Title

I have a Sharepoint 2007 site that is displaying the old/original title in the Breadcrumb rather then the updated Page title... help!
Under "Site Content and Structure" I went to "[SiteName] > Pages > [Page] > Edit Page Settings..." which took me to "Page Settings". Here I edited "Page Title and Description > Title" to the new title, simple and done. But the site Breadcrumb is still showing the old title!??!
When I go into "Site Content and Structure > [SiteName] > Settings > Site Settings... > Navigation", under "Navigation Editing and Sorting" I get the list of Pages with their old titles (as is being displayed in the Breadcrumb). As they are Pages the "Edit..." button is disabled so I cannot change their titles here.
I cannot believe a bug this stupid made it into a major release! It's pretty obovious the page titles are being cached somewhere at creation and not updated later. It's this cache that the Navigation is using rather then the current page titles. But I have been unable to locate this mythical cache. And it doesn't look like I can access the sitemap.xml at my access level (grr!), can I get to this via the webUI (I've always done it in the source directories, which I cannot see).
So... where in the hell is the Breadcrumb getting the page titles from, and can I change this (preferably non-programaticially as I am but a simple MOSS editor on this project)?
If you are able to access the Site Collection Administration at the top level, you can access the Site collection object cache, the site collection cache profiles, and the site collection output cache. If you go into the settings of these items, you can check a box to "flush" the cache, that should reset it.

Quick Reference Guide for Sharepoint Site Settings?

Is there a "quick reference" guide or "cheat sheet" type document for each of the available options within the "Site Settings" page in Sharepoint 2007 ?
The settings page that I'm talking about is shown in this image: http://i38.tinypic.com/wmgqv7.png and is the one accessed via the "Site Actions" drop-down on the right-hand side of the screen as shown below:
These are all of the "Site Settings" grouped into categories such as "Users And Permissions", "Look and Feel", "Galleries" & "Site Administration".
What I'm ideally looking for is a sort of "cheat sheet" that lists each of these options, perhaps as bullet-points, and provides a quick small paragraph of text that describes each option.
For example, I'd like to see something like the sample below, but for each of the options available within the "Site Settings" configuration page:
Look And Feel
Title, description, and icon
This option allows you to enter a textual name for the site along with a
description and icon. The title and
icon are displayed in the "header"
area on the top of each page within
the site and the description is
displayedon the main area of the
site's default or home page.
Here's the best I could find: SharePoint 2007 administration part VI: Site administration

SharePoint: Site Layouts

Hi I was wondering which Layout I could use to get the search box in the top right hand corner. I used (Welcome Page) Blank Web Part Page) as the page layout but its missing the search box in the top right corner.
Also another question: How can I add my own layouts to the list in the Create Page, page. Thank you.
The search box is defined in your master page. Ususally default.master, it would not matter which layout you choose the elements defined in the master page will still be in the same place. In your case it would appear that the search box does not exist on your master and would need to be added in again.
You would need to amend the master page for your site and add the appropriate SP control for search into the appropriate place on your page. This will ensure that a SP search box is rendered in that location for every page.
To define your own page layout have a look at Link 1 and Link 2.
As for the search box, it is defined as part of the Site Template. Try creating a Site using the Collaboration Site template.
