This page uses custom searches.

Pm wiki provides a basic search function. While it is not powered by a "search engine", it can be tweaked to produce results that are targeted and customized.

Targeted searches

Searches can be targeted to restrict the search to certain pages. For example, a search can be restricted based on groups, where, for instance, "group=Pm wiki" searches only the Pm wiki group, and "group=-Pm wiki" searches only pages that are not in the Pm wiki group. In addition to groups, searches can be restricted based on page names ("name="), wiki trails ("trail="), backlinks ("link=") and other criteria (e.g. "list=normal") and capped at a maximum number ("count="). For documentation about each of these parameters, see page lists.

Customized display

The display of search results can be customized to control the format, content and order of the returned results. Format and content are selected by using "fmt=" to specify a pagelist template that determines layout, such as list styles, and page elements, such as title and description. The "order=" option allows results to be sorted according to different criteria, such as name and title. For documentation about each of these parameters, see page lists. For examples of pagelist template formats see Site.Page List Templates, and Cookbook:Pagelist Template Samples.

The (:pagelist request=1 req=1:) directive can be used instead of (:searchresults:) to remove the "Results of search for" message.
The req=1 parameter disables the pagelist until search results are returned.
This can be used in many more cases than the default pmwiki search.
Data from pages with PTvs, etc can be searched, filtered, and reordered.
Note that the default ordering is of text strings, ie. 1, 10, 2, 3 and not the numeric value 1, 2, 3, 10, but a custom pagelist sort function (see the cookbook?) can return any order required.

Anyone, anywhere

Readers can create targeted and customized search results simply by typing the relevant parameters , e.g. "group=Pm wiki", into search boxes together with their search string. Authors can predefine such targeted and customized searches by incorporating the parameters into pages using the (:searchbox:) and (:searchresults:) directives (documented at PageLists).

(:searchresults:) can be customized by editing page Site.Search.
