Hi everyone,

I’m excited to try out faceted Acquia/Solr search for FES, how do I configure the provisioned dev yalesite to use it? I don’t have the acquia subscription settings or (I guess) proper search host to use.

I’d be grateful for clues, URLs, etc.

Cheers!

Hello Michael,

Is this a test site? If so you need to setup free account then connect to subs via the module (admin/config/system/acquia-agent/setup). Make sure you set per screenshot below.

Once you connect it’ll ask which account to connect to.

Then setup Solr: See: Acquia Solr Search Configuration for Drupal 7

Alternatively you can skip 1rst step if you are already on Acquia cloud

I was unsure whether there was a Yale sandbox thing going on, I will follow your advice, thank you!
