Indexed Text Conversion To ResultItem Summary - SearchUnit - Forum

Joe, you can set Configuration.ResultSummaryType to ResultSummaryType.StaticBodyStart and that will give you a consistent summary for each result.

You can modify what is shown by editing the ResultItem template in the search result page. Our default ResultItemTemplate has



you can modify it to




and then add (in the codebehind)

public string CustomizeResultSummary(string summary){

}

summary will be "9704 866 2003 ABC-123F Jet Pump(1/2)(JT1200-B1)"

and you just need to return what you want instead.

Kind regards

Sorry Joe, I forgot that only the 2nd column from your SELECT statement is used for the static summary. But this would be a better solution anyway, just concat the fields you actually want to use for the summary, as the 2nd column in the select.

See http://www.mssqltips.com...o-a-string-with-concat/

Eg. (you can use concat in MSSQL2012)

SELECT
Title,
CONCAT(Title,' ',FirstName,' ',MiddleName,' ',LastName) as MailingName,
FirstName,
MiddleName,
LastName

FROM Person.Person


You will of course need to reindex if you do that.

If reindexing is a problem, then you could try using the default summary type, but set the summary word length to a large number so that all words in the record are used for the summary, which you can then customize as I mentioned before.
