Searching Comments

Post by stiras »

Hello,

I have recently upgraded my site with the versions below:
CMS Made Simple 1.10.3 "Hyacinthe"
Search 1.7
Comments 1.9.2

I am still having the problem I have posted some time ago, namely:

The problem is that Search module doesn't index content in Comments, respectively - doesn't show/return relevant results.

Here is an example:
There is a comment on my site about "Banking Law". There is no content about "banking law" on the site included IN THE PAGES. If a user is searching the site with keywords "banking law" no search results will return though there is a comment with such words (there would be search results if the content was in the pages rather than the comments).

Any ideas how I could make this working?

Thanks a lot!

I find no module called Comments in the forge. How did you install it, where did you find it..?

Have you run the reindex in the Search module, I'm surprised it still works as it has been so long since it was in the forge...

Yes, I've tried re-index but it seems that Search module doesn't index Comments content at all.

the comments module is probably not setup for indexing by search module. Comments module is afaik stale and replaced by cgfeedback module.
