Search all content

[Dennis_87]

Someone know how to edit the quick search so default search is all content? Example when on pages it does not only search articles.

Looking at this myself. I think I've figured it out just with template changes - seems to be working. 

in Core>Front>Global>Navbar

Find 

<span data-role='searchingIn'>

Delete everything in that span (leave the span tags) and replace with

 {lang="search_everything"}

Find

<li class='ipsMenu_item {{if output.defaultSearchOption[0] == 'all' AND !count(output.contextualSearchOptions)}}ipsMenu_itemChecked{{endif}}' data-ipsMenuValue='all'>
                 

           

Replace with 

<li class='ipsMenu_item ipsMenu_itemChecked' data-ipsMenuValue='all'>
                            

Find 

<li class='ipsMenu_item {{if $setDefault === FALSE}}ipsMenu_itemChecked{{$setDefault = TRUE;}}{{endif}}' data-ipsMenuValue='{expression="json_encode( $data )"}' data-options='{expression="json_encode( $data )"}'>

  Replace with

<li class='ipsMenu_item' data-ipsMenuValue='{expression="json_encode( $data )"}' data-options='{expression="json_encode( $data )"}'>

                                    

I've only just done this myself and done some quick testing and it seems to work as you'd expect.

I cant get this to work, looks like my template file is not exactly the same.

How will this be edited to apply the search all content changes? Thanks

Have you already edited your template? Can you revert changes then try?

Did try the default theme now with the same issue. The search all content option is chosen but also the category and the search results are not all content.
