Question

When trying to use the search function within a page, no results are displayed when I enter the search parameter scope="topic".

The search criteria does exist as part of a topicname. When I skip the scope parameter, also a page title is shown which contains the search word.

The command I use:

	%SEARCH{"PartOfTitle" nosummary="on" nototal="on"}%

Also using the provided search page, I cannot search in topics!

Answer

Not sure what is wrong. Check this:

• Do you get correct search results from the WebSearch topic for search in topic text and search in topic name?
• Search depends on fgrep, egrep and ls commands. Make sure those are available on Windows and set the correct path in TWiki.cfg (omit the drive letter, i.e. /tools/egrep instead of c:/tools/egrep). See details in TWikiOnWindows.

I've updated my local installation with the latest beta, and have also removed the drive letter from the grep and ls commands. Everything is working now.
