I have a smart search page that shows all the products on the page with some smart search filters that narrows down the products on some criterias (Let's say for example Filter1 has Option1, Option2 and Option3).
What I am trying to accomplish is to have a link on a seperate page that links to the product page, but when the user clicks on that link some of the search filters gets set (For example Filter1 would have Option2 selected).
I'm not sure if that is possible with out of the box solution, but with simple tweaks inside SearchFilter.ascx.cs, you can make a workaround. File is placed under CMSWebParts/SmartSearch/SearchFilter.ascx.cs. You should change method 'GetSelectedItems' to take a look into query string for filter value (see snippet bellow):
/// <summary>
/// Gets selected items.
/// </summary>
/// <param name="control">Control</param>
/// <param name="ids">Id's of selected values separated by semicolon</param>
private string GetSelectedItems(ListControl control, out string ids)
{
ids = "";
string selected = "";
//CUSTOM: retrive value for query string
var customFilter = QueryHelper.GetString("customFilter", "");
// loop through all items
for (int i = 0; i != control.Items.Count; i++)
{
//CUSTOM: ----START-----
if (!RequestHelper.IsPostBack())
{
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(customFilter))
{
if (control.Items[i].Text.Equals(customFilter, StringComparison.InvariantCultureIgnoreCase))
{
control.Items[i].Selected = true;
}
}
}
//CUSTOM: ----END-----
if (control.Items[i].Selected)
{
selected = SearchSyntaxHelper.AddSearchCondition(selected, control.Items[i].Value);
ids += ValidationHelper.GetString(i, "") + ";";
}
}
if (String.IsNullOrEmpty(selected) && (control.SelectedItem != null))
{
selected = control.SelectedItem.Value;
ids = control.SelectedIndex.ToString();
}
return selected;
}
And your hyperlink will look like this: /Search-result?searchtext=test&searchmode=anyword&customfilter=coffee
With this modifications, you can send only one value in filter, but if you need more then one value, you can send them and customize it however suits you best. Also, you can send filter name (in case that you have multiple filters) and then add check in method above.
I will recommend you not to modify kentico files. Instead of that, clone default filter web part and make modifications there, because withing next upgrade of project, you will lose your changes. I checked this in Kentico 11.
For Smart Search Filters:
if turn off auto-post back option -then web part control ID should become a query string parameter that you can use.
This above will form something like:
/Smart-search-filter.aspx?searchtext=abc&searchmode=anyword&wf=2;&ws=0;&wa=0
P.S. I suggest you to take a look at the corporate site example: look the smart search filter web part: /Examples/Web-parts/Full-text-search/Smart-search/Smart-search-filter. It is working example you can use it as starting point.

In ClaimCenter I am trying to filter a drop down list to only display users that have a certain role. I am using a User input cell. There is no value range on the userinput cell only value. The value is set the user that they select so right now it's displaying all the users in the system instead of just the ones with the role that i want. Is there a way to show just the users that have the "Adjuster" role. I don't see a filter option either on this cell.
Right click the element and select "Change Element Type"
Then select "Range Input".
Then in the ValueRange property add a call to the code that you write.
The code to should find the subset of users that you want to show in the drop down and return them as a List or User[], something like this might work
function myValueRangeFunction(pClaim: Claim) : User[] {
//gets the group from the DB by public ID
var adjusterGroup = Group ("cc:123");
var adjustersOnly = new Set<User>();
var groupUsers = adjusterGroup.MembersNoSystemUsers
adjustersOnly.addAll(groupUsers*.Users)
return adjustersOnly.toArray()
}
You need to change the input type to Range Input (or Range Cell in case you are using List View) where valueRange property calls a method which retrieves users with a specific role.
.pcf file:
<RangeInput
editable="true"
id="userInput"
label=""Adjusters""
value="claim.AssignedUser"
valueRange="UserRoleUtil_Ext.Adjusters"
valueType="entity.User"/>
UserRoleUtil_Ext.gs:
uses gw.api.database.Query
uses gw.api.database.Relop
class UserRoleUtil_Ext {
public static property get Adjusters() : User[] {
var adjusterRole = Query.make(Role).compare(Role#Name, Relop.Equals, "Adjuster").select().AtMostOneRow
// Alternatively, you can retrieve the Role by its public-id, e.g.:
// var roleRetrievedById = Query.make(Role).compare(Role#PublicID, Relop.Equals, "cc:1").select().AtMostOneRow
return adjusterRole.AllUsersArray
}
}
I have a custom table with a few fields that have list options for the user to select from when adding the content. Is there something in the API that allows me to access the options for a particular field so I can use those same options in a filtering widget?
Something like the below but that works for fields in a custom table?
var guids = ParentDocument.GetValue("CustomFieldName").Split(';');
var referencedDocs = DocumentHelper.GetDocuments().WhereIn("DocumentGuid", guids);
UPDATE - The code in case the link in the answer changes:
protected string[] GetFormFieldOptions()
{
DataClassInfo dci = DataClassInfoProvider.GetDataClassInfo("custom.MyPageTypeName");
if (dci != null)
{
//Get the data from the form field
FormInfo fi = new FormInfo(dci.ClassFormDefinition);
FormFieldInfo ffi = fi.GetFormField("Industry");
string[] industries = ffi.Settings["Options"].ToString().Split('\n');
return industries;
}
return null;
}
Use DataClassInfoProvider in order to get data you need. Check this blog post to see more details.
You can use the same code as you have in your question. The difference is you need to get 2 different things which are not available at the "Page" or "Document" level:
Custom table object
Custom table item based on #1
You use the API to get the custom table item:
var cti = CustomTableItemProvider.GetItem(<id or guid>, "yourcustom.tableclassname);
if (cti != null)
{
string[] s = ValidationHelper.GetString(cti.GetValue("YourField"), "").Split(";");
}
Update
To get a dynamic list of options in a field you can simply use a listing control like a dropdown list or a radio button list as your control (vs. a textbox). Then in the properties for the dropdownlist, you can set it to a query. In the query enter something like
-- if you wan to have a 'select one' add this
SELECT '', '-- select one --'
UNION
SELECT ItemID, FieldName
FROM CustomTable_Name
ORDER BY 2
I have a web application. And I am using coded ui to write automated tests to test the application.
I have a dropdown with a text box. Which on entering values in the textbox, the values in the dropdown gets filtered based on the text entered.
If I type inside textbox like 'Admin', I will get below options like this:
And I need to capture the two options displayed.
But using IE Developer tool (F12), I am not able to capture the filtered options, because the options that are displayed do not have any unique property (like this below). And the options that are NOT displayed have a class="hidden" property
Any way to capture the elements that are displayed by applying some kind of filter like 'Select ui elements whose class != hidden'
Thanks in advance!!
HI please try below code will it works for you or not.By traversing all those controls that have class ="hidden"
WpfWindow mainWindow = new WpfWindow();
mainWindow.SearchProperties.Add(HtmlControl.PropertyNames.ClassName, "hidden");
UITestControlCollection collection = mainWindow.FindMatchingControls();
foreach (UITestControl links in collection)
{
HtmlHyperlink mylink = (HtmlHyperlink)links;
Console.WriteLine(mylink.InnerText);
}
I'm not sure there is a way to do it by search properties, but there are other approaches.
One way would be to brute force difference the collections. Find all the list items, then find the hidden ones and do a difference.
HtmlControl listControl = /* find the UL somehow */
HtmlControl listItemsSearch = new HtmlControl(listControl);
listItemsSearch.SearchProperties.Add(HtmlControl.PropertyNames.TagName, "li");
HtmlControl hiddenListItemsSearch = new HtmlControl(listControl);
hiddenListItemsSearch.SearchProperties.Add(HtmlControl.PropertyNames.TagName, "li");
hiddenListItemsSearch.SearchProperties.Add(HtmlControl.PropertyNames.ClassName, "hidden");
var listItems = listItemsSearch.FindMatchingControls().Except(hiddenListItemsSearch.FindMatchingControls());
You will only be able to iterate this collection one time so if you need to iterate multiple times, create a function that returns this search.
var listItemsFunc = () => listItemsSearch.FindMatchingControls().Except(hiddenListItemsSearch.FindMatchingControls());
foreach(var listItem in listItemsFunc()){
// iterate 1
}
foreach(var listItem in listItemsFunc()){
// iterate 2
}
The other way I would consider doing it would be to filter based on the controls which have a clickable point and take up space on the screen (ie, not hidden).
listItemsSearch.FindMatchingControls().Where(x => {
try { x.GetClickablePoint(); return x.Width > 0 && x.Height > 0; } catch { return false; }
});
I am wondering about how to search in J2ME. I have been searching in the internet, so many result show to me, and I see in Java2s.com I got a result use RecordFilter and matches method for search in record store.
But my problem is, when I need to pass 2 or more parameters into it. How can result matches with these parameter?
And how to sort descending or ascending like bubble sort?
Concatenate your searches into a single String variable. Separate each of them with ; for example. In the code of the matches method explode the String to get each search criteria.
To make the filter in effect create an instance of SearchFilter and call the matches method with the concantenated String as its param.
For the sort implement the RecordComparator interface ; implement the compare method to build your sort criteria. Make a google search about j2me+recordcomparator to see examples about how to make sorts.
EDIT :
In the code of the matches method explode the String param obtained from the byte[] param. Treat each String exploded to make the criteria.
As I understand you want to pass two string as a search criteria when you wrote :
SearchFilter search = new SearchFilter(txtSearch.getString(), strType);
So in the constructor there should be two params !!!
When you want to make the matching then call
if searchFilter.matches((search1+";"+sType).getBytes())
Then explode the candidate param into two String when you code the matches method.
When I save my Data in RMS I save it as a String[] like I want to save Name, Age,Salary,EmpID for each employee I save it create an array and convert it to bytes and save it in RMS. When i retrieve it i do the reverse process. Now if i want to get employee with names starting with A and with salary 10000 i use the following filter
class UtilFilter implements RecordFilter{
public UtilFilter(String str_searchText,String str_searchText1)
{
this.str_searchText = str_searchText.toLowerCase();
this.str_searchText1 = str_searchText1.toLowerCase();
}
public boolean matches(byte[] bt_byteData)
{
String str_str = "";
String str_str1 = "";
//here goes code how u get back ur String[] from RMS say u get it in Data
str_str = Data[0].trim();
str_str1 = gd_cd.Data[2].trim();
if(str_searchText != null && str_searchText1 != null && str_str.equals(str_searchText) && str_str1.equals(str_searchText1 ))
{
return true;
}
else
{
return false;
}
}
}
This way i can filter any no of parameters.Hope tht helps! :)
I have a webpart that works off of a list but what I'm trying to do create a dropdown that contains a list of sharepoint lists so that when the user edits the page and selects 'modify shared webpart' they are able to choose a list item and that gets parsed back to the webpart.
Any examples or links to examples appreciated!
Thanks
Dan
What you are looking for is called a Toolpart. Take a look at this example for a tutorial on how to create one.
Overall, your general steps will be:
Create your custom Toolpart class inheriting from Microsoft.SharePoint.WebPartPages.ToolPart
In your custom Toolpart, override CreateChildControls, write the code to iterate over the lists in your SPWeb, and add those to a DropDownList
In your webpart, override GetToolParts and add your custom ToolPart so that it shows up in the right hand side
It sounds like you want to create a custom editor part. In the part you would have one dropdown that shows the names of the lists (you probably want to filter hidden and empty lists) and, when an item is selected from the list, a second dropdown shows the Title column of the items from the selected list.
Here's some code (edited here, so it will need to be cleaned up) to help you get started:
protected Page_Load(...)
{
if (IsPostBack) return;
var web = SPContext.Current.Web;
var query = from list in web.Lists
where list.Hidden == false && list.ItemCount == 0
select list;
DropDownList1.DataSource = query;
DropDownList1.DataTextField = "Title";
DropDownList1.DataBind();
}
protected DropDownList1_SelectedIndexChanged(...)
{
var web = SPContext.Current.Web;
var listName = DropDownList1.Text;
var list = web.Lists[listName];
var table = list.Items.GetDataTable();
DropDownList2.DataSource = table;
DropDownList2.DataTextField = "Title";
DropDownList2.DataValueField = "ID";
DropDownList2.DataBind();
}
