I have a content search webpart that shows the title of the file and other properties.

However in some file its not using the property Title, it looks like its using the title on the first big letters from the documen itself

Example:

All the documents below which have the name INTRANET are wrong: http://screencast.com/t/vxM64hKBayy

The first page of one of those files look like this: http://screencast.com/t/CUAQkjcM

If I edit properties of one of these files its correct: http://screencast.com/t/oRa4SkPSidv8

I am assumming Sharepoint indexes the content of the document and assumes that first big letters on the first page is the title

Anyway to fix this?

My display template is like this

<html xmlns:mso="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:msdt="uuid:C2F41010-65B3-11d1-A29F-00AA00C14882">

In SharePoint Online you cannot change the crawled property mappings of the Title managed property.

What you could do is to use one of the predefined RefinableString.. managed properties and add the crawled property mappings that you want.

Wait for the next full crawl and once that is done and you should get your field values.

  • thanks Elio, I mapped RefinableString00 to Title and ows_Title, that should be enough.

Sounds like you got what you needed, but I thought I'd elaborate a bit to save time for others that come across this sort of issue.

Recently, I had to customize search results for a client that wanted a very specific look and feel. Whenever possible, I like to use Managed metadata or Managed Content Types (Custom Columns) because SharePoint AutoMagically indexes these columns during search. Then, you can add them to the managed properties of the search display templates and call them in the via code like below, where MyModules is a custom content type / custom column .

Modules: _#= MyModuleOWSTEXT =#_

In short, changes to Item_CommonItem_Body.html will affect almost all results except for type specific searches such as Word, Excel, People, etc.

If you create a custom *.html, then you will need to create a custom result source and result type so they are all connected. Then, you can create a new search page or modify an existing search page so that you can use the custom result source and result type.

Lastly, changes to Sharepoint online search take several minutes. In between the changes, you may see an error on the search page.

After perfecting this process, you can ignore the intermittent error to allow the changes to go through.

Hopes this helps!
