SearchSelectLister

Hello,

I have a problem with my view. I have a dropdown where I recover a set of fields named Users. I want to add a value in the dropdown named "all" which take the value "*" but I don't know how do that because it's a SearchSelectLister and not a StaticSelect.

Thanks by advance to your help,

Laura

staticFieldsToDisplay works just as fine for a SearchSelectLister, so just add it exactly as you would with the StaticSelect.

    ...
    <module name="SearchSelectLister">
       <param name="staticFieldsToDisplay">
          <list>
            <param name="value">*</param>
            <param name="label">All</param>
          </list>
        </param>
        <param name="searchFieldsToDisplay">
          <list>
            <param name="value">name</param>
            <param name="label">name</param>
          </list>
        </param>
        <param name="selected">All</param>
        ...
