Picturepark Search

If you want to optimize the search results you can update the search settings on specific fields used on Content or List Items e.g. Boosting.

Suggestions and Filters

You configure filters for the channel as Content Browser filters. Here you define per filter where it shows up:

Enable filter (show as a filter in the right sidebar)
Enable search in filter (show as a filter with search in the right sidebar)
Enable search suggestion (make this filter a search suggestion)

You can select one, two, or all of the above.

  1. Open the Channel Settings

  2. Scroll to the Content browser filters

  3. Add the Filters you want to have suggestions for. 

  4. Add Search Fields per Filter that are used for offering suggestions. 

  5. Switch on “Enable search suggestions” for the filter

The search in the Content Browser can be optimized by an admin through the configuration of search settings on specific fields used on content items.

  1. Open the List Settings

  2. Scroll to the Filters of the List

  3. Add the Filters you want to have suggestions for it. 

  4. Add Search Fields per Filter that are used for offering suggestions. 

The search in the List Browser can be optimized by an admin through the configuration of search settings on specific fields used on list items.

This behavior also applies to the Search Suggestions in the Content Browser and List Item Browser which use the same logic. 

Search functionality within filter values can propose "suggestions" for the possible values. Depending on the fields on which you are going to filter, their analyzed version will be used: this means that we will have an insensitive casing search and a "like autocompletion" behavior roughly implemented.

Each Filter can have one or multiple search fields that should be used for the search in the Filter settings.

Searching

Guided Search

The new guided power search is based on the advanced filter editor where users can construct complex searches using drag & drop. In the new guided search users can drag & drop fields and operators (AND, OR, NOT) to create the advanced search query.

You can just click on the icon to open the Editor. It is not required to switch the Search Mode to Advanced Search.

Example: Content Items without layers

Example: Items with correct copyright information

Example: Permission to use in publications

 

Inside the search, you can switch between the search modes in the top right corner. Your search terms (e.g., Summer Fruit Arrangements) stay when you switch between the modes, the results change obviously. A default mode for all users of Picturepark is not possible; each user can choose their preferred mode. The last search mode used is preserved in your browser's local storage; however and therefore remains selected until manually changed.

Search Query: Summer Fruit Arrangement

By clicking, you can choose from three modes:

  1. AND: find content that contains all search terms e.g., images of summer fruit arrangements

  2. OR: find content that contains any of your search terms e.g., images of summer, images of fruits, images of arrangements

  3. Advanced: find content that has precise criteria, so the user writes how to interpret the search terms, e.g. (Summer Fruit OR Winter Fruit) AND (Arrangement OR Details) NOT Bananas

The Picturepark Content Browser search does not search by default through all metadata. Your system administrator defined the values that should be searchable (field setting "Include in search") and might have excluded some information to improve search results. Please contact your administrator should you have any questions or recommendations about missing search values.

Boost, Fulltext, AND, OR, Advanced
