two questions: about search and url with templates

Hello to all,

 

I’m a new user of apache roller 4.0 with mysql 5.0. I like roller, is very
good application to make blogs. Nice job!

 

My questions are:

 

I see the mailing list and  manuals, and I don’t find nothing about to
config the search in the blog. If somebody tell me where is any
documentation o tell me about activate the search. I’m thankful

 

The other question is about template’s url. I have a template that roller
set a url like http://ip/roller/page/template. My question is if would be
possible change this url to something like http://ip/roller/template.

 

Thanks

 

Ricardo Hermida

All you should have to do is to make sure you've set the
'search.index.dir' property in your roller-custom.properties file.
Then you can use the search feature built into your Roller blog theme.

The URL of a page is formed like this:
   http://hostname/<context-name>/<blog-handle>/page/<page-name>

If you deploy Roller at the root context then you can get this:
   http://hostname/<context-name>/<blog-handle>/page/<page-name>

And in that case, the URL of a page is formed like this:
   http://hostname/<blog-handle>/page/<page-name>

It is possible to change that but such change will require a number of
changes to Roller's Java code.
