Smart search score and content preview for files
Hello,

I am using Smart Search. It also works for uploaded files. However, the transformation is not able to show a score and content preview. So I have two questions:
- How do I get/show a smart search score for Document type file
- How do I get/show content preview with highlighted results for Document type File?

Any help is welcome. Thanks in advance.

RE:Smart search score and content preview for files
Hi,

I guess you mean the Full text search over attachments/files in the DB, right? If so, in this case it is no possible to get the score since this is being executed by SQL search and not smart search, the results of these two different searches are then just combined. The same applies for the content preview - this is the limitation of the SQL Full text search.

Best regards,
Juraj Ondrus

That is very disapointing. Is there no way to sort PDF files on relevance and is it not possible to get at least some preview of the first text lines?

Hi,

This would be better to ask MS SQL server support abut their Full text search options (this has basically nothing to do with Kentico) or Google it - I am not aware of any easy way. you will need to customize the search engine built in Kentico as well.
