SOSL

Hi,

 

Is it possible to use SOSL in public sites. I have a search query that always returns 0. I know there are objects of the type I'm returning that match the query I'm passing in, and the public user has read access to the object. Do I need to enable search for the user some how? 

 

Thanks!

Scott

Of course...

 

If your using a managed package you have to include the prefix on the object names in the SOSL query.

 

Thanks for the help,

Scott

Searching with SOSL should work fine.  Can you share some more details about what you're doing?

Sure,

 

I'm trying to implement a simple search for our site. Just as a test I created the following controller:

 

 

public class SearchController extends ContentCore {

    public List<CustomObject__c> CustomObjects{get; set;}
    public List<List<SObject>> Results;

    public SearchController() {

        this.Results = [FIND 'A-*' IN ALL FIELDS RETURNING CustomObject__c(Id, Name)];   
        this.CustomObjects = (List<CustomObject__c>) this.Results[0];
   
    }

} 
 
The name of the object is an auto generaged number A-{0000} and the search in the regular salesforce organization returns results. The public user has read all access
