Hi,

I’ve newly installed RT 3.6.3 and RTFM 2.2.0RC5. I created a custom field for the Article’s body. The field name is called body and the type is a wikitext area. Then I created a new class and added the body field to that class. I setup the permissions so that I have full access to the class.

I went ahead and created a new article in the class. Then when I go to the advanced search and try and search for a word that is in the body field it doesn’t return any results. I did some searching on the mailing list archive and have seen others with a similar problem but no answer yet.

Strange since I have a setup like this and this is the query thats generated:
/* Formatted on 2007/06/07 10:09 (Formatter Plus v4.8.8) */
SELECT COUNT (DISTINCT main.ID)
FROM (fm_articles main LEFT JOIN objectcustomfieldvalues objectcustomfieldvalues_1
       ON ((objectcustomfieldvalues_1.disabled = '0'))
     AND (objectcustomfieldvalues_1.objectid = main.ID))
 WHERE ((LOWER (main.CLASS) = '1'))
   AND (   (objectcustomfieldvalues_1.content LIKE 'blablabla')
        OR (LOWER (main.NAME) LIKE 'blablabla')
        OR (LOWER (main.summary) LIKE 'blablabla')
       )

One thing to notice about this is that we have a modification which doesn't add the % when searching for 'contains' which translates to the sql statement LIKE which needs it. Fixing this and running the query by hand gives me the expected result of: 0 results ;-) Entering something which I know is available gives me the expected result though. One thing to be notice is that there are 2 content columns in the Objectcustomfieldvalues table namely:
content and largecontent
If it the text does't fit into content it is placed into largecontent BUT that column is not included in the search which might explain why you don't find what you're looking for.

Greetings,

Joop



I have tried installing older versions of RTFM to see if they have the same problems. I installed ver 2.1.40 and that had the same problem. Then I went all the way back to the latest final release of RTFM ver 2.0.4. This one actually does work. The only issue is that it is soooo old that it doesn’t really fit in well with 3.6.3 and there is a bunch of functionality missing.
