WebLink search on Date=Today

WebLink Search and Retrieval
Updated February 5, 2014
asked on February 4, 2014

Is it possible to do a custom WebLink search limiting returns to today's date?  I would like to have a search for the public where they can pull up agendas for future meetings, current date meetings and past meetings, all using the current date in the search terms.  Something like [Date]<Today for past meetings.

 

Thank you.

This is possible, but since the WebLink Search Form Designer currently doesn't support the use of date tokens, the user would have to manually enter in the current date.

 

You can create a custom variable (i.e. called "TimeFrame") using a single select list type for "before", "on", and "after". Next, create another custom variable (i.e. called "Date") and give it the "Date" input type.

 

Now for your search query, just create multiple custom constraints for:

{[template]:[field]<%(Date)} with the condition of TimeFrame is set to value "Before"

{[template]:[field]=%(Date)} with the condition of TimeFrame is set to value "On"

{[template]:[field]>%(Date)} with the condition of TimeFrame is set to value "After"
