Client would like to remove some items from the search results window. For example, a typical result looks like this:

Search results for l1 visa
1 files - Relevance: 1213

Client would like to remove the first 2 lines:
Search results for l1 visa
1 files - Relevance: 1213

Is this just a simple edit to the aspx or VB file? Can I just comment out the line that calls those 2 items, or is it more involved?

Thanks in advance,

Dan,

It might be easier to use CSS to set display:none to the items that you don't want to display.

You can try rewriting the .aspx, but you'll hit problems is you remove controls that are using in the code behind file. Then there is all of that "hard to upgrade" stuff ...

Hi Joe,
Thanks for the tip. I did it a bit different. I edited DesktopModules\Admin\SearchResults.aspx page and added the line visible="false" to these 2 lines:

<asp:HyperLink id="lnkTitle" runat="server" CssClass="SubHead" visible="false" NavigateUrl='<%# FormatURL((int)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"TabId"),(string)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem,"Guid")) %>' Text='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Title") %>' />

<asp:Label id="lblRelevance" runat="server" CssClass="Normal" visible="false" Text='<%# FormatRelevance((int)DataBinder.Eval(Container.DataItem, "Relevance")) %>' />

Best,
Dan

Dan,

That approach is fine, provided that you remember it before doing an upgrade. Chances are that this won't change so you should just save a copy and be prepared to copy it back after the upgrade.

Also, I notice that the SearchResults.ascx.cs file is also there, so you could go about removing elements or adding other ones, provided that you do it carefully.
