Content reuse based on topic type
By changing the configuration of some indexes in the Index Definition file, you can allow users to reuse content from any topic in IXIA CCMS Web.
Each index identifies reusable components users can insert into content.
By default, each index only indexes content in referable-content topics. The indexed content is what users see as reusable content in the following dialogs:
- The Referable-Content view in IXIA CCMS Desktop
- The Reuse Content dialog in IXIA CCMS Web
You
can adjust each index to include other topic types that have a specific attribute, such
as <topic
otherprops="reusable">
.
Type | Function |
---|---|
reusable_element_id |
Indexes all the descendant elements in <rcbody> that have an id attribute |
reusable_element_name |
Indexes the name of all descendant elements of <rcbody> that have an id attribute |
reusable_fulltext |
Indexes the text of all descendant elements of <rcbody> |
reusable_units (unit) |
Indexes all descendant elements of <rcbody> that have an id attribute |
referable_component_library |
Indexes all maps that are designated as referable component
library maps Note: The identified maps have
<data
name="referable_component_library"> just after
the <title> element.
There is a default template for them. |
Default index configuration
Default index definitions are located in the Index Definition file. The only limitation for how you configure an index is what is possible using XPath.
Note: In
general, you must change every index for your configuration updates to work
properly.
