Searching NodeContent

Vote:
 

Hi,

We are using EPiServer.Commerce.FindSearchProvider v8.12.0 to search for products/variants in the catalog browser which works. The editors also would also like to search NodeContent types.

Does anyone know if this is possible? When running the indexing job, it seems that content nodes doesn't get indexed. 

Thanks

Hi,

The search provider does not work with node contents. If you really want to do that, you'll have to consider Find.Commerce, which works with Find better than FindSearchProvider does.

Regards,

Hi Quan,

I've installed Find.Commerce and it works much better than FindSearchProvider.  The nodes now gets indexed, but its not searchable in the catalog browser.  Do you perhaps know if I there anything else I need to do to make the nodes searchable?

Thanks

Hi

You'll have to write your custom search provider to override the default one. Override your class from ProductSearchProviderBase and decorate it with [SearchProvider] attribute. 

To override the default one, you can also implement ISortable to it and set the SortOrder to 0 (which would be the highest priority search provider in SearchArea)
