[TYPO3-english] Crawler Configuration and protected content

[Russel Anderson]

Hello everyone,

I manage a Typo3 website for an NGO that uses about 2 dozens of frontend 
groups for about 3,000  frontend users. Consequently they have close to 
50 frontend group combinations.

I am currently trying to setup indexed_search & crawler and it is my 
understanding that the content must be crawled with all feuser 
combinations so that all users can get fairly the same search results [1].

I don’t know how to configure indexed_search/crawler to fit all those 
profiles. I mean, I want to avoid creating 50 crawler configuration 
records in tree’s root (will result in astronomical crawler queue). As a 
side note, I use sr_feuser_register to register all my users so they all 
belong, at least, to a base group called "feuserapproved". I would be 
satisfied that all users belonging "at least" to this group could see 
all the content reserved for this group. Is it possible to achieve that 
with indexed_search/crawler?

Does anyone have a suggestion/workaround to this problem?

Regards,

Russel

provide a Crawler Configuration for each and every subset of user groups 
you have”
