I'm following the tutorial:4 tutorial for enabling search.

Is it possible to limit searches to certain pages or even page types?

I want to create a very simple "blog" style page for recipes, but only search the recipes "blog."

Ideally, I'd like to set up other pages just like it, and have the search only search their respective blog items.

Thanks!

How about changing the Page.php function (with appropriate SOMETHING's :)

function results($data, $form){
	$dosResults = $form->getResults();
	
	$dosNewResults = new DataObjectSet();
	foreach ($dosResults as $doResult) 
	{
		if ($doResult->Title == "SOMETHING" 
			|| $doResult->URLSegment == "SOMETHING" 
			|| $doResult->Name == "SOMETHING")
		{
			//filtered
		}
		else
		{
			//keep
			$dosNewResults->push($doResult);
		}
	}

	$data = array(
		'Results' => $dosNewResults,
		'Query' => $form->getSearchQuery(),
		'Title' => 'Search Results'
	);
	$this->Query = $form->getSearchQuery();

	return $this->customise($data)->renderWith(array('Page_results', 'Page'));
}

Thanks for that Barry! That's what I'm looking for, but I don't think I understand the URLSegment part well enough to make my query work properly.

To test is I set up two pages that had "Salad" in their title. One page inside the /recipes section and one outside. With the query below I'm returning both, but I only want the one inside the /recipes section. I was able to get mixed results filtering by Title and Name, but URLSegment is definitely what I want to filter by.

Actually...What would be preferable would be something like this:
$doResult->URLSegment == "$TheCurrentSegment"

where "TheCurrentSegment" is the section I'm searching in (ie. the recipes section).

Any idea?

// search
	function results($data, $form) {
		$dosResults = $form->getResults();
		$dosNewResults = new DataObjectSet();
		foreach ($dosResults as $doResult) {
			if ($doResult->URLSegment == "recipes")
			{
				// filtered
			} else {
				// unfiltered
				$dosNewResults->push($doResult);
			}
		}
		$data = array(
			'Results' => $dosNewResults,
			'Query' => $form->getSearchQuery(),
			'Title' => 'Search Results'
		);
		$this->Query = $form->getSearchQuery();
		return $this->customise($data)->renderWith(array('ArticleSearchResults', 'ArticleHolder'));
   }

I just tried a slightly different approach using this tutorial. But I get the same results. Apparently I fail at URLSegment. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Using this function I should be removing the result found in mysite.com/otherpage/the_recipe, but it's not removing. I'm getting both results from the /recipes and /otherpage sections.

	function results($data, $form) {
		$data = array(
			'Results' => $form->getResults(),
			'Query' => $form->getSearchQuery(),
			'Title' => 'Search Results'
		);
		foreach($data["Results"] as $page) {
			if($page->URLSegment == "otherpage") {
				$data["Results"]->remove($page);
			}
		}
		$this->Query = $form->getSearchQuery();
		return $this->customise($data)->renderWith(array('ArticleSearchResults', 'ArticleHolder'));
	}

EDIT: So I now realize that URLSegment is returning the actual recipe page URLSegment. So that's why it's not filtering the page. So what I want would look like this, except this obviously doesn't work.

if($page->ParentURLSegment != ThisParentURLSegment)
