Set Up Findability
Technical Overview
The Acrolinx Findability feature helps your writers ensure that their content is easy to find when people enter relevant keywords in a search engine. When Acrolinx Findability is enabled, writers see a Findability tab in the Acrolinx Sidebar.
When writers work with Acrolinx Findability, they can define target keywords for each document. These keywords are saved to an H2 database at the following location:
<INSTALL_DIR>\db\findability
Acrolinx Findability is enabled by default so Acrolinx checks for findability every time you run a check. Acrolinx Findability isn’t a checking option so you can't disable it from the Sidebar. However, you can update your core server properties to disable it.
Enabling and Disabling Findability
- Open your overlay of the core server properties file.
You find the overlay for the core server properties file in the following location:
%ACROLINX_CONFIGURATION_ROOT%\server\bin\coreserver.properties
Add the following property:
keywordInformationService.connector=off
- Save your changes and restart the core server.
