Search box & breadcrumb disappears from mojoportal inbuilt pages.

I have added Search box in my skin Which works perfectly fine .

The problem is that it disappears on some of the inbuilt pages of mojo portal (Login,Register,Forgot password)these pages shows up when user has not logged in.(I have Checked Hide from Authenticated user).For testing I have unchecked the textbox on Forgot Password page & when check it after log in search box shows up.

 searchbox also visible on other inbuilt pages (Change password,User profile page)these pages shows up when user has loggged in.

Please let me know how can i resolve this. Since i need to show the search box on all the pages.

Same problem also occur for Breadcrumb none of the inbuilt pages shows breadcrumb it should atleast show (Home=>Login,Home=>Register)

am i missing something ? please help me out.

Re: Search box & breadcrumb disappears from mojoportal inbuilt pages.

Hi,

Regarding searchinput, generally its not a good practice to have other distractions on security related pages such as register, login and password recovery. However if you wish to do that there are some properties you can set on on <portal:SearchInput in layout.master including:

  • HideOnLoginPage="false"
  • HideOnRegistrationPage="false"
  • HideOnPasswordRecoveryPage="false"
  • HideOnSiteSettingsPage="false"
  • HideOnSearchResultsPage="false"

Breadcrumbs is a separate issue. Breadcrumbs can be used to show the relationship of a content page to its parent content page to show a user where they are in the page hierarchy. Registration and Login and other non content pages are not child pages of any content page so breadcrumbs cannot be shown there. Nor is it needed since there is always a home link visible. I do not have a way for you to show breadcrumbs on those pages.

Hope that helps,

Joe
