Numbered Posted December 6, 2016 Posted December 6, 2016 In my site by default search type is 'All Content'. But if i try to search member's name, then i see 0 results. And if I select 'members' type of serach - i can found him. Why 'All content' type of search is not include member name search? It's strange logic fou our users. Fast search input with select all content must search in all content (members too). Here is search with selected 'All Content' and my nickname:
Numbered Posted December 9, 2016 Author Posted December 9, 2016 Anyone answer? Is that issue? Or it's normal functional. So.. if first - ok and me wait. If no (like to know why) - then i need to make plugin for change this logic. Thanks.

If you're on a specific area and use search then you got results for that specific area as default... and that's right.

As i think - this must be search in all content type... So.. Users is not 'content'? It is little strange for our users understanding. If they see several types and 'All' variant - they think about all from list. Thanks for your reply)
Adriano Faria Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Do the search. It will show results in the area that you are. Then you simply change the result by clicking in More search options and selecting All Content. You're done.
Numbered Posted December 9, 2016 Author Posted December 9, 2016 I am know this. But want to use this as 'fast search' with one imput and one click. Without proceed deeper to advanced search. I am understand. Thanks
SJ77 Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 I think results SHOULD come up when searching a user name. All content to me means search everything. I want member results, and topics started by members who match my query.
Adriano Faria Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 Yeah.... If I'm on Forums (app) and I need to search by drive (like drive error, etc.), for example, why do I want to view a image in Gallery from someone that used drive (a car or something) in the caption? Weird example ? But doable!
Nathan Explosion Posted December 9, 2016 Posted December 9, 2016 It comes down to what content is - "All content" means "all things that have been submitted as content in the forums/pages/gallery etc" Members are not content items, are they?
