Remove search “this site” from the Search dropdownMarch 22, 2008 12:09
As described in this post at TechNet you can disable the option by editing the OSearchEnhancedFeature, but this would affect all sites, and editing standard features is not a clean option as it might be overwritten with service packs. I decided to remove the dropdown value with the help of some javascript. Just insert a Content Editor Web Part and insert the following javascript code:
<script language=”javascript”>
var searchDropDown = document.all.ctl00$PlaceHolderSearchArea$ctl01$SBScopesDDL; var removeID = 100; for (var x = 0; x <= searchDropDown.options.length-1; x++) { if (searchDropDown.options[x].value=="This Site") { removeID = x; } } if (removeID<100) { searchDropDown.remove(removeID); } </script> This code will remove the option from the dropdown and it’s tested in IE and Firefox. You can also download this preconfigured Web Part and add it to the required page. Enjoy!

I finally manged to change them. The setting “Show subsites” can be altered in 2 ways. I was only able to change the “Show pages” on a publishing site.
Method 1 (”Show subsites” only)
SPWeb web = new SPSite(webCollection).OpenWeb();
web.AllProperties["__IncludeSubSitesInNavigation"] = “False”; web.Update(); web.Close(); web.Dispose(); Method 2
SPWeb web = new SPSite(webCollection).OpenWeb();
Tags: code, IncludePagesInNavigation, IncludeSubSitesInNavigation, pages, publishing, site, subsites, __IncludeSubSitesInNavigation.
PublishingWeb publishingWeb = PublishingWeb.GetPublishingWeb(web); publishingWeb.IncludePagesInNavigation = false; publishingWeb.IncludeSubSitesInNavigation = false; publishingWeb.Update(); publishingWeb.Close(); web.Close(); web.Dispose(); |

For one of our customers we wanted to remove the search “this site” option from the dropdown. The site consists only of some rollup information and a single page, so searching it for content makes no sense. The search this site option also ignores the search center url specified in the configuration, another reason to remove it.
