Problem with Advanced Search customization

[mbikl]

Hello,

I would like to customize Advanced Search to adding "My Search" option. I changed share-config-custom.xml (see below). But my customization doesn't work. I added a new item to search menu, but i get error "Form definition could not be found". 

I use the definition from cm:folder, but it doesn't work. I use community edition 7.3 in Docker desktop.

Pls, do you see where is a problem?

Thanks, Martin

This may sound silly, but why your 

customContentModel

doesn't have a prefix?

Hi,

I try to create new advanced search more than 10 day. I had a namespece prefix. If I use namespace prefix "myprefix:customContentModel" I get error "Namespace prefix myprefix is not mapped to a namespace URI". 

Wow.... What does is mean? Where is defined namespace URI?

Thank you for your advice.

Hi mbikl,

The namespace prefix "myprefix:customContentModel" which you trying to add in your advsearch page custom form should be registered in your custom contentmodel also, then it'll not throwing this error.

Step1: create you custom content model with having myprefix  + customContentModel to registered.

<namespaces>
<namespace uri="http://cms.testproject.com/model/content/1.0" prefix="myprefix"/>
</namespaces>

Step2: Restart your ACS to deploy that custom content model.

Step3: Use this custom namespace prefix in your advsearch form. It should work.

Thanks,
