This scenario will describe all the required steps that a user has to do in order to perform a kind of search, retrieve the results and then view the metadata of a result record.
- Login to a portal instance. (http://portal.d4science.research-infrastructures.eu/vre/vre)
- Your username and password are required so that you can log in
- After the login select the preferred VRE to load and click "enter"
- FCPPS/FCPPS VRE is selected and you are now logged in to this VRE
- All the available portlets for this VRE are now loaded. Click on the "Search" tab to view the search portlets.
- Select the collections you want to search through
- Choose the type of search you want to perform
In the picture above we have selected 2 collections, combined search and we have typed only one keywork. We asked the results to be sorted by 'Title' in ascending order - Suppose that you choose the "Combined" search. Add as many conditions as you like and type your keyword for each conditions.
- Select the sort order and field that will be used for the results and then click the "Search" button
