This section describes how custom search pages can be created, in order for the system's release functionality, to be overridden or extended. What does this section cover? |
Create Custom Search Pages
For an introduction to search pages, go to Developing search pages (Deprecated).
All search pages must be created under ..<custom_project>/WebContent/pages/search/<module_name> directory.
To override the system's release functionality, the custom page must have the same filename and parent directory name as the release search page. To extend the system's release functionality, the custom page must have a different filename, than any other release search page having the same parent directory name.
...
In the following example, a search page is created to search for all users, declared as super user in the system. We could either override the load.xml release search file located under ../WebContent/pages/search/users, or create a new loadsystemusers.xml file in the respective custom project directory. In this case, we didn't want all pages using load.xml to be affected, therefore we created loadsystemusers.xml under ..<custom_project>/web/WebContent/pages/search/users.
