How to display the URL (from the link) in the search results?

Question

I've added a simple "Link List".
When I search, the Search Core Result webpart displays a list from all results. But the hyperlink which is generated points to the LinkItem, not to the real URL.

is this possible without using Managed Property as described here ?

Answer 1

@rfarqleet is correct. I have never done this in such a capacity but here is a good place to start: moss-2007-customize-the-search-result-using-xslt-part-3-customize-using-sharepoint-designer-2007

More info can be found by googling: "customizing search results using XSLT"

Answer 2

No, unfortunately, your best bet is to use xslt scripts which enable you to modify the search result display of your search query.
