Search drop down

No, but it only shows objects to which user has full view access.

Hi Guys,

It might make sense if we could control which objects appear in the search box. I've removed several objects from the index, because I don't want my users to be able to search in those objects, however they are still think it's possible because the objects appear in the drop-down.

What do you mean by "removed several objects from the index" ? I understand the issue, but we need to find the best approach to address it.

Also "Search" component can now be hidden - use Account Settings if you wich.

Hi Pavel....Sorry, this is what I meant:

We don't want to hide the search box, because we used to search for applications and clients.

However, I don't want users to be able to search 'Application Documents' because these should only be visible by going through the application.

So I went into my 'Application Documents' object and made sure that no fields had the 'Index this field' option. Now it is not possible to search the application documents, which is good. However, it's confusing to the clients that the heading still appears in the drop-down.

I can imagine 2 solutions:

1) Have an object attribute called 'Include this object in search drop-down' OR
2) the system would automatically omit items from the drop-down if there are no fields included in the search index. (may be harder to implement?).

OK, that makes sense - we should hide objects without indexable fields.

What is the current way to remove or add an object to the search dropdown - I have an object with indexable fields and it is not showing in the users drop down AND they have full view rights.

Please make sure that "Dependent" is unchecked for your object.
