Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Specify the location for the branding files
The branding feature is enabled only when you specify a location to store your branding files. If you do not do so, when you click Tailoring > Branding, an error message is displayed, which indicates that the branding feature is not enabled.
To specify the location for the branding files, follow these steps:
-
Stop the web application server.
-
Specify the folder location in Web parameter: customize-folder.
For example:
<context-param>
<param-name>customize-folder</param-name>
<param-value>C:/customize</param-value>
</context-param>Tip To apply the branding settings from one web tier to another, copy the "customize" folder you created from the source web tier to the target web tier.
-
On the web tier host, create a folder (for example, C:\customize) . This folder is the root folder to store your branding image files, including your custom image files to replace the original ones and your branding settings in the branding menu. In this folder, Service Manager saves your color and font settings in a branding.xml file and custom images in a subfolder named branding-images.
Note You must have write access to this folder.
-
Restart the web application server.
