No results are returned in the search results when you search for people by site membership in SharePoint Server 2007

SYMPTOMS

You connect to the Search Center in Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007. Then, you click the People tab, click Search Options, and then search for people by site membership. However, no results are returned in the search results.

CAUSE

This problem occurs because the managed name of the QuickLinks property in the People Search Box Web Part is incorrectly set to QuickLinks. The managed name of the QuickLinks property should be set to Memberships.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, set the QuickLinks property of the People Search Box Web Part to use the correct managed name. To do this, follow these steps:
  1. Connect to the Search Center, and then click the People tab.
  2. Click Site Actions, and then click Edit Page.
  3. In the People Search Box Web Part, click edit, and then click Modify Shared Web Part.
  4. Under People Search Box, expand Miscellaneous.
  5. Click in the Properties box, and then click the ... button.
  6. Scroll to the bottom of the Text Entry -- Web Page Dialog dialog box, and then locate the following line.
    <Property Name="QuickLinks" ManagedName="QuickLinks" ProfileURI="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:sharepoint:portal:profile:QuickLinks"/></Properties>
    Replace the line with the following line.
    <Property Name="QuickLinks" ManagedName="Memberships" ProfileURI="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:sharepoint:portal:profile:QuickLinks"/></Properties>
  7. Click OK two times.
  8. Click Publish to publish the page.

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
