    Question How To Search Topics or Sections

    Does anyone know of a way to make the default search tool search not just products and categories, but also sections & topics.

    Example:
    If I create a topic or section for a promo code, or even a featured manufacturer called "Custom Section". Can I make the search find this? When I use the search and type in "Custom Section" it will return no results found even though I have a section or topic labeled that.

    Any help you guys can give me would be great!

    EDIT: Derp, just noticed that your question was posted in the MS forum. Not sure if these same appconfigs exist in your version. Sorry about that!

    I don't know about topics but you may be interested in these appconfigs:

    Search_ShowCategoriesInResults - if true, then a category matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Search_ShowDistributorsInResults - if true, then a distributor matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Search_ShowGenresInResults - if true, then a Genre matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Search_ShowManufacturersInResults - if true, then a manufacturer matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Search_ShowProductsInResults - if true, then a category matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Search_ShowSectionsInResults - if true, then a section matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Search_ShowVectorsInResults - if true, then a Vector matches will be shown in the advanced search results

    Do an appconfig search for "search" for all other options. Sadly I do not see anything pertaining to topic.

    Perfect just what I was looking for. For some reason I could not find this yesterday even though it was under search.

    Thank goodness its Friday.
