WebLink Folder Search To Open Folder

asked on October 21, 2015

We have a WebLink 9 search that uses a field the user enters and advanced search syntax to find a department's folder.  It will always return just a single folder.  We are wanting the search to open the folder instead of displaying the single result and making them click the folder to open.  Is it possible using a WebLink Search Form to open a folder directly when it is the only result of a custom search?

Hi Beau,

You can construct a URL to WebLink that will directly open a folder and/or search result.

To open a specific folder, use: "http://hostname/WebLink/Browse.aspx?dbid=x&startid=y".

To open a search result, use:

"http://hostname/WebLink/Search.aspx?dbid=x&searchcommand=searchquery".

  • hostname is the name of the Web server hosting WebLink.
  • x is dbid value of the WebLink repository configuration you want to use (found in the Weblink Administrator's Activity)
  • y is the ID of the folder
  • searchquery is the Laserfiche search syntax
