Pro Blog Search results include site address?

Permalink
Guys,

Have just installed Pro Blog. When you click on a Tag you are taken to the search results page you are told to set up. The problem is each result has the address of the company above the actual result.

To see go to:
http://wgca.co.uk/profitbuilder_blog/... and click on a tag to the right.

The address seems to coming from either the footer or the Contact page.

I have discussed this with Chad but he thinks it's a Search Block issue.

Has anybody any ideas please?

Ian

without question this is a search block issue. ProBlog simply points to something that is already on your site. did you try the custom search results view included in ProBlog?

if you want help in general forums, you should avoid using addon specific context in your title as fewer people will take a look at it assuming it's something to do with the addon and belongs in that addons support page.

Again, in no way at all is this issue related to problog. uninstall ProBlog and leave those pages....and you will still have the same results. At the end of the day, ProBlog helps manage and post pages. It doesn't do anything with indexing or searching.

Hi Chad,

Interestingly I have just created a new Search Page under Home with a new Search Results page under Home. The search page with search box searches the whole site.

When entering a search term the results arrive at the new Search Results page with no address info.

Our error with the Pro Blog Search would seem to be pro blog related?

Would you like access to the site to see?

You may want to message the core team.

The search results are fielded by the search block. this is a core C5 block.

I understand what your impression is based on what you see...but in the back end of things it's VERY different and segregate issues:

- problog has tags that link via a specific tag ID number. (personally, I think this method sucks...but again...the core team dictates this with what the search block accepts and searches related to tags.) the key point here is attribute KEY ID. proBlog is passing an attribute key ID #, not a tag WORD. very important to understand this. the search block does not natively search tags or select attributes by word. it is limited to content, titles, and descriptions when dealing with words or "keyword" searches.

- the search block, of which ProBlog follows the core teams own example of how to implement tags, accepts the attribute tag ID # and then searches the collectionSearchIndexValues table for idexes of at_attribute_name and matching value that was pulled by the key value # passed in the query.

To illustrate the difference of what you are doing as a "test" and what is actually happening: please take a look at both

/packages/problog/blocks/problog_list/templates/tags/view.php

and then compare that to

/concrete/blocks/search/templates/tag_cloud/view.php

You wil see that in regards to the links, and what is being passes as a query when you click on a tag is identical.

You can feel free to replace my tags list block with the core teams search block tags view, and you will see the same results (in theory..I can't say for sure, because I can't reproduce your issue)

again I would ask, have you tried the provided ProBlog custom search view?

Hi Chad,

Thanks for getting back to me. I am afraid most of your explanation on tags went over my head.

I did try the Custom Template and the results still have the address in them and also drop out of the template in some, but not all, cases. See attached.

As you seem quite certain it isnt PB I'll try and contatc the core team as you suggest.

Yours

Ian
