How can I search for special characters and ?

You can create an index to search for special characters ™ and ®.

Symptom

I want to search all topics that contain the special characters ™ and ®.

Problem

This index is not defined in the default configuration and must be added manually.

Solution

In the TEXTML Administration perspective, perform the following:

Edit the Index Definition file to add the following index:

<index NAME="specialchars" SYNC="False">
          <stringindex KEEPEXTRACTEDVALUES="True">
              <elements>
              <element XPATH="for $s in //*/text()[contains(.,'®')] return 'Register'" DEPTH="INFINITE"/>
<element XPATH="for $s in //*/text()[contains(.,'™')] return 'Trademark'" DEPTH="INFINITE"/>
             </elements>
         </stringindex>
       </index>

To add the index to the Advanced Search panel in the Search view, edit the system/conf/advancedSearchIndexes.xml file and add the following:
```
<index display="Special Characters" name="specialchars" type="index" listable="true" views="ALL"/>
```
When the indexing is complete, restart your IXIASOFT CCMS Desktop.
