%METASEARCH{...}%
Parameter: | Description: | Default: |
---|---|---|
type="..." | Type of search: • "topicmoved" - search for a topic that may have been moved. • "parent" - search for topics that have a specific parent i.e. its children. • "field" - search for topics that have a particular form field value (use the name and value parameters to specify which field to search). | Required |
web="%WEB%" | Wiki web to search: A web, a list of webs separated by whitespace, or all webs. | Current web |
topic="%TOPIC%" | The topic the search relates to. | Current topic |
name="..." | form field to search, for type="field" searches. May be a regular expression (see SEARCH). | |
value="..." | form field value, for type="field" searches. May be a regular expression (see SEARCH). | |
title="Title" | Text that is prefixed to any search results. | "" (empty) |
format="..." | Custom format of each search hit. Supports same format strings as SEARCH. See FormattedSearch for usage, variables & examples | "$topic" |
separator="..." | Separator between search hits. | "$n" (newline) |
default="none" | Default text shown if no search hit. | "" (empty) |
%METASEARCH{type="topicmoved" web="%WEB%" topic="%TOPIC%" title="This topic used to exist and was moved to: "}%
%METASEARCH{type="parent" web="%WEB%" topic="%TOPIC%" title="Children: "}%
%METASEARCH{type="field" name="Country" value="China"}%
%SEARCH{"text" ...}%
Parameter: | Description: | Default:![]() |
---|---|---|
separator=", " | Line separator between search hits. Specify format="$topic" separator=", " to get a comma separated list of topic names. The following variables can be used in the separator value: $n expands to a newline, $br expands to a <br /> line break tag. | "$n" (Newline) |
newline="$br" | Line separator within a search hit. Useful if you want to put multi-line content into a table cell, for example if the format="" parameter contains a $pattern() that captures more than one line, or contains a $formfield() that returns a multi-line textfield. The following variables can be used in the newline value: $n expands to a newline, $br expands to a <br /> line break tag. | "$n" (Newline) |
start="0" start="20" | Specify the number of results to skip. This is done after sorting if sort parameter is specified. This is intended for pagination of results. If this parameter is specified, %NTOPICS% in the search template is replaced with the number of topics matched. Without this parameter, %NTOPICS% doesn't exceed the limit value. | "0" |
limit="all" limit="16" | Limit the number of results returned. This is done after sorting if sort parameter is specified. This parameter specifing the number of results remains the same in the presense of the start parameter. Assuming there are more than 20 results matched, start="10" limit="10" results in 11th to 20th results are returned | "all" |
reverse="on" reverse="off, on" | Reverse the direction of the search. Specify a comma list of on, off tokens to toggle direction by sort field. If sort has more fields than reverse tokens, the state of the last reverse token is taken for the remaining fields. | "off" |
scope="topic" scope="text" scope="all" | Search topic name (title); the text (body) of topic; or all (title and body) | "text" |
sort="topic" sort="created" sort="modified" sort="editby" sort="parent" sort="parent(99)" sort="formfield(name)" sort="parent, | Sort the search results by: • topic : topic name, • created : topic creation time, • modified : last modified time, • editby : last editor, • parent : parent topic name, • parent(N) : parent breadcrumb up to indicated level, • formfield(NAME) : named TWikiForms field, • or a combination to sort by more than one field using a comma list. The sorting is done web by web; if you want to sort across webs, create a formatted table and sort it with TablePlugin's initsort. Note that dates are sorted most recent date last (i.e at the bottom of the table). Legacy order parameter is used in case sort is not specified. | "topic" |
type="keyword" type="word" type="literal" type="regex" type="query" | Control how the search is performed when scope="text" or scope="all" keyword : use Google-like controls as in soap "web service" -shampoo ; searches word parts: using the example, topics with "soapsuds" will be found as well, but topics with "shampoos" will be excluded word : identical to keyword but searches whole words: topics with "soapsuds" will not be found, and topics with "shampoos" will not be excluded literal : search for the exact string, like web service regex : use a RegularExpression search like soap;web service;!shampoo ; to search on whole words use \bsoap\b query : query search of form fields and other meta-data, like (Firstname='Emma' OR Firstname='John') AND Lastname='Peel' | %SEARCHVAR- DEFAULTTYPE% preferences setting (literal) |
date="..." | limits the results to those pages with latest edit time in the given time interval. | All results |
createdate="..." | similar to date but it's about create time instead of last edit. You can specify both date and createdate , in which case topics matching both conditions are shown. | All results |
topic="WebPreferences" topic="*Bug" | Limit search to topics: A topic, a topic with asterisk wildcards, or a list of topics separated by comma. Note this is a list of topic names and must not include web names. | All topics in a web |
web="Name" web="Main, Know" web="all" | Comma-separated list of webs to search. You can specifically \*exclude\* webs from an all search using a minus sign - for example, web="all,-Secretweb" . The special word all means all webs that do not have the NOSEARCHALL variable set to on in their WebPreferences. Note that TWikiAccessControls are respected when searching webs; it is much better to use them than NOSEARCHALL . | Current web |
casesensitive="on" | Case sensitive search | Ignore case |
search="text" | (Alternative to above) | N/A |
headingoffset="2" | Adjust the level of headings in text of topics found, taking effect in $text and $pattern() of a FormattedSearch. A "2" or "+2" increases the level by two, e.g. a ---+ H1 turns into a ---+++ H3. Positive and negative values are supported. Adjusted min and max levels are H1 and H6, respectively. | no adjustment |
encode="html" | Encode special characters into HTML entities. If a FORMFIELD is passed into an HTML form field it should be encoded as "html" . Additional encodings available: encode="quote" , encode="moderate" , encode="safe" , encode="entity" and encode="url" . See ENCODE for details. | no encoding |
default="..." | Default message if there are no hits in a web. See FormattedSearch for usage, variables & examples | No output |
excludetopic="Web*" excludetopic="WebHome, WebChanges" | Exclude topics from search: A topic, a topic with asterisk wildcards, or a list of topics separated by comma. Note this is a list of topic names and must not include web names. | None |

recurse="on" | Recurse into subwebs, if subwebs are enabled. | off |
multiple="on" | Multiple hits per topic. Each hit can be formatted. The last token is used in case of a regular expression ";" and search | Only one hit per topic |
expandvariables="on" | Expand variables before applying a FormattedSearch on a search hit. Useful to show the expanded text, e.g. to show the result of a SpreadSheetPlugin %CALC{}% instead of the formula | Raw text |
"text" | Search term. Is a keyword search, literal search, regular expression search, or query, depending on the type parameter. SearchHelp has more | required |
header="..." format="..." footer="..." | Custom format results. See FormattedSearch for usage, variables & examples | Results in table |
noheader="on" | Suppress default search header Topics: Changed: By: , unless a header is explicitly specified | Show default search header, unless search is inline and a format is specified (Cairo compatibility) |
nototal="on" | Do not show number of topics found | Show number |
nosearch="on" | Suppress search string | Show search string |
