Hi!
Is there any way to limit search to one specific branch within a section? How narrow is it possible to make the "selection" of what to preform a serch on?

Hi
The following works in 3.0.2
The SubTreeArray variable can be used to limit the search to a specific subtree or subtrees.
<input type="hidden" name="SubTreeArray[]" value="23">
It must be noted that only the main nodes are returned in the search, so if a content object matches the search but its main node is outside of the subtree set by this variable it will not be returned.

Thanks, Bruce, for enlightening me on the SubTreeArray[]
I'm a bit confused about your mention of main nodes and content objects. Do you mean objects and attributes? or is there some hidden mechanism for defining nodes as "main nodes" that I have missed. To me, all nodes/objects "look the same"...
The SubTreeArray[] isn't limited to the original content classes that shipped with the EZ installation?
