[SOLVED] Search module: include other modules in searches

[qwalk]

Hi.

How can i make the search module include content from the EventsManager? For example if I have an event called Event1 and I am searching for Event1 it doesn't show any results.

Thanks!

Try to use reindexing function inside search backend after adding new events.

Normally every (well coded) module does it by themselve.

Hi, thanks for your reply.

I tried using the button: "Reindex All Content" from the Search module settings page, but it does not help unfortunately.

Any other suggestions?

The event manager is not a 'real' module, as in it isn't something you can put in a 'page', so there is no way to 'search' it from the front end...

Sorry, I was thinking this was the core event manager...

But that module is marked as stale in forge, 19 months since any updates...

Oh.. I'm sad to hear that :/ .. Not even with another search plugin? I can see how it can be difficult to search in the EventsManager plugin.. A created event doesn't generate a page, so I guess it wouldn't even work if I put in a custom Google search bar .. :/

I don't agree on this one.

The content should be searchable for this module and a test confirmed that it is. HOWEVER, it was only searchable after a reindex in MY test case.
