This guide describes how to configure quick search and advanced search to search in the content of documents in the Web Viewer.

Step-by-step guide

Follow these steps to configure content search in web viewer.

  1. Edit profile.config and add the below settings to enable content search in quick search and advanced search respectively

    <SearchManager>    <SearchManager>       <QuickSearchDocumentContent>true</QuickSearchDocumentContent>       <SearchDocumentContent>true</SearchDocumentContent>    </SearchManager> </SearchManager>

  2. Open the control panel "Indexing options".

  3. Click change and add the Document folder of the site

  4. Once Windows has created an index of the site's documents, the content search will be available in the Web Viewer.
