Include module titles and page titles in site search

I am not sure if this is a usability issue, configuration issue or bug but I was wondering if it is possible to include module titles and page titles in site search.

E.g. if I create a page "Address", put a HTMLModule on that page with as title "Address" and put only my address (without the word "Address") inside that HTMLModule, then site search does not find the page when you search for "Address".

Is there some way to tell the indexing engine to include titles in the search and not only content?

Re: Include module titles and page titles in site search

Hi Jan,

Thanks for reporting this issue. I was "sure" it should work just as you expected because I know I am indexing those titles into the search index. But I just tried it on my machine and got the same result as you. I was able to figure out the problem and fix it so this will be fixed in the next release.

The technical explanation is that while I did have configured to index that content it was missing a needed additional setting for Field.TermVector.YES in configuring how those fields were indexed by the Lucene.NET search index.

After adding that and rebuilding my search index it now works as expected.

Best,

Joe

This is now fixed in version 2.3.1.6, it does require rebuilding the search index.

Best,

Joe
