Troubleshoot Advanced Search

This feature is only available in Hippo DX.

Incorrect results when searching for documents limited by publication date

Your search results show incorrect data in the 'Published' column if you select a date value in the 'Publication Date; To' filter.

This behaviour has been observed in implementations that were upgraded from Hippo CMS 7.8 to Hippo CMS 10.

The issue is caused by a change in the document model used to store content in the repository. In Hippo CMS 10 the hippostdpubwf:publicationDate property is never stored on draft and unpublished document variants. Document created and published before the upgrade to Hippo CMS 10 may have a hippostdpubwf:publicationDate stored on their draft or unpublished variant which is not updated anymore after the upgrade to Hippo CMS 10 and as a result becomes outdated. This outdated publication date may be displayed in the search results.

The issue can be fixed by removing all hippostdpubwf:publicationDate properties from draft and unpublished document variants using below Updater Script.

Query:

/jcr:root/content/documents//*[(@hippostd:state='draft' or @hippostd:state='unpublished') and @hippostdpubwf:publicationDate]

Groovy script:

package org.onehippo.cms.updater

import org.onehippo.cms.updater.BaseNodeUpdater

import javax.jcr.Node
import javax.jcr.PropertyType
import javax.jcr.PathNotFoundException
import javax.jcr.RepositoryException

/**
 * Adds default logo type property to cover documents that does not have one.
 */
class RemovePublicationDatePropertyFromUnpublishedAndDraft extends BaseNodeUpdater {

  public static final String PUBLICATION_DATE = "hippostdpubwf:publicationDate"

  boolean doUpdate(Node node) {
    log.debug("Updating {}", node.getPath())
    try {
      if (node.hasProperty(PUBLICATION_DATE)) {
        node.getProperty(PUBLICATION_DATE).remove()
        return true
      }
    } catch (RepositoryException e) {
      log.debug("An error occurred {}", e.getMessage())
      return false
    }
  }
}
