  • Zoom Search / iFrame question

    Hi,

    Need some of your collective brain power....and yes I know (and
    apologise in advance) that this is a NOF newsgroup and it's really a
    Zoom question but NOF users are generally more in-tune with the quirks
    of NOF and several are Zoom users and may have already solved this one.
    At least I hope so! Cos I'm in trouble again now!!!

    Zoom v5.1 (Build 1017)
    NetObjectsFusion v10
    CushyCMS

    I have a client site that has a working Zoom search that was based on a
    flat structure but I have just converted it so that the client can edit
    the content via CushyCMS and to do this the content is pulled in via
    iFrames on every page. These content pages are held in a different
    folder to the main site folder. E.G.:-

    htdocs/html (for main site)
    htdocs/html-client (for client edited content)

    So for every main page there is a matching client editable page.

    Two questions:
    1. If I run Zoom against the new site will the results and their Dog (http://www.dogs-info.net/) links
    take the visitor to the /html-client thus losing the surrounding page
    and navigation?

    2. If this is the case how can I modify Zoom parameters to point to the
    correct pages?

    e.g: content searched will be found in /html-client/news.html but I need
    the search results to link to /html/news.html.

    Doable?

    There is a feature called "Rewrite links" which can be found in the Configuration window under "Indexing Options".

    You can use this to index, say, "/html-client/news.html" but rewrite the result such that all occurrences of "/html-client/" is replaced with "/html/". So the search result will link to "/html/news.html" in this situation.

    Click on the Help button in that window for more information.
