organize collections


16 February 2015, 20:56

Hi,

There's no search engine for the collections. Do you offer a solution to dispose of filter, a tool to organize them.
Our teachers use much MAHARA, this explains why there are today many pages and collections, and the need to classify them, find them easily.

Thanks

Hi,

Yes you are correct there is not a way to search for collections.

If one has elasticsearch installed then one can index collections via the ElasticsearchType_collection.php file. 

However the search results only allow for portfolios to be filtered by pages.

So it would be a matter of adding a filter by collections.

Otherwise if one is using the internal search then the only way you could search by collection is to have all you collections contain a tag indicating they are a collection and search for that.

Cheers

Robert
