Widget types based on the class fixedSearchWidgetType
display the result of
exactly one preconfigured search. Because this widget type does not offer any editable
state, you should provide the search to execute when you define the widget type. In this
way, you can define fixed search widget types showing checked-out documents or the most
recently edited pages or arbitrary other searches.
For each type, you should at least specify the name
under which the type can be
selected in the dropdown box when adding a new widget. At your option, you may also set a
title
or a description
to be shown for your type.
Because you can define multiple types, you must also provide different widget type IDs. You
can then use a plain widgetState
element with the chosen type ID and placement
attributes to instantiate the widget.
An example configuration of this widget might look like this:
<editor:configureDashboardPlugin> <editor:widgets> <editor:widgetState widgetTypeId="editedByOthers"/> </editor:widgets> <editor:types> <editor:fixedSearchWidgetType id="editedByOthers" name="Edited by others"> <editor:search> <editor:searchState editedByOthers="true" editedByMe="false" notEdited="false" approved="false" published="false"/> </editor:search> </editor:fixedSearchWidgetType> </editor:types> </editor:configureDashboardPlugin>
