CMSPasswordSalt

The password salt is a string that is appended to user passwords before they are hashed (to improve security). By default, it always contains the randomly generated GUID of the given user.

Description

Sample Value

CMSSearchIndexPath

Sets the path of a custom directory where smart search index files should be physically stored.

<add key="CMSSearchIndexPath" value="App_Data\MyCustomIndexes" />

CMSSearchOnlyWhenContentPresent

Determines if smart searches should be performed only when there is at least one standard content keyword specified in the search expression. The default value is true.

Setting this key to false allows search expressions containing only special Lucene query syntax, i.e. direct field searches such as:

DocumentNodeID:(int)17

This key is now obsolete. The same result can be ensured by leaving the Block field-only search property disabled for individual Smart search results or Smart search dialog with results web parts.

<add key="CMSSearchOnlyWhenContentPresent" value="false" />

CMSCreateTemplateSearchTasks

If enabled, any changes made to a page template will automatically trigger an update of all documents that are based on the given template in the appropriate smart search indexes.

The default value is true.

You can set this key to false if you wish to improve performance or save resources in scenarios where you have a very large number of documents on your website that share the same page template. This way, the system will no longer perform bulk updates of documents in the search index whenever their template is modified.

Disabling this key will mean that your document index will not reflect changes to the template (e.g. if you add static text to the template through a web part) until the given documents are updated for some other reason, or the entire index is rebuilt.

The key only affects changes to page templates. Editing the content of editable regions on a specific document will always cause it to be updated in the index.

<add key="CMSCreateTemplateSearchTasks" value="false" />

CMSProcessSearchTasksByScheduler

By default, the smart search creates and runs indexing tasks immediately whenever content covered by a search index is created or modified.

If you set this key to true, the system does NOT run indexing tasks upon creation — they need to be processed periodically, for example using the Execute search tasks scheduled task.

The default value is false.

<add key="CMSProcessSearchTasksByScheduler" value="true" />

CMSSmartSearchLockPollInterval

Specifies how often (time in milliseconds) the smart search indexer tries to acquire a lock on an index file.

The default value of this key is 500 milliseconds.

<add key="CMSSmartSearchLockPollInterval" value="500" />

CMSSmartSearchLockTimeout

Defines the timeout period (in milliseconds) during which the smart search indexer should try to acquire a lock on the index file.

The default value of this key is 1000 milliseconds.

You should increase the value if the following exception gets logged into your Event log.

Lock obtain timed out: CMS.SiteProvider.SearchLock

<add key="CMSSmartSearchLockTimeout" value="1000" />

Specifies the default UI culture. If you use this key, you also need to rename the ~\CMSResources\CMS.resx file to CMS.en-us.resx and the CMS.en-nz.resx file to CMS.resx. This is needed because the CMS.resx file is used when the (default) option is selected in users' Preferred user interface culture.

The default value is en-us.

<add key="CMSDefaultUICulture" value="en-nz"/>

CMSUseSQLResourceManagerAsPrimary
