7.7: Cross-Collection Searching

Greenstone can search across several different collections as though they were one. This is done by creating a "super-collection" that comprises the individual collections. Under "Design Sections", click "Cross-Collection Search".

Simple Instructions: Selecting a collection

Simple Instructions:

The Cross-Collection Search view shows a checklist of available collections. The current collection is ticked and cannot be deselected. To add another collection to be searched in parallel, click it in the list (click again to remove it). If only one collection is selected, there is no cross-collection searching.

For further details, see Chapter 1 of the Greenstone Developer's Guide.
