Hello All,
Just purchased the v5.0 of zoom search...very nice.

I have a question, the users are thrilled with the search capabilities however have asked for the ability to have a simple but complete listing of the available files (as opposed to only search results). Is there a way to do this with the software?

Thanks

John

You could maybe use the site map option in Zoom to generate a text file containing the URLs of all available pages. This would certainly fit the requirement of being simple and being a complete list.

Another option might be to tell the users to use wild cards. For example a search for re* would return all pages that have any word on them that starts with re. A search for ** (double star) will return all pages, but it might be slow for large sites.

Another option might be to get them to search for a word that appears on every page of your site. e.g. your company name.
