Configuring custom field searchers

Configuring custom field searchers

Search Templates are responsible for indexing a custom field, as well as making it searchable via Simple Search and Advanced Search (note that custom fields are not searchable via Quick Search). Every custom field type has a preconfigured search template, but you may select a different template using this procedure.

The plugin includes three custom fields: Linker Issue Custom Field, Multi Linker Issue Custom Field and Linked Issue Custom Field.

One of them (linked) is read only field that's why it doesn't have a searcher. But the rest have custom searchers: Linker Issue Custom Field Searcher for linker fields and Multi Linker Issue Custom Field Searcher for multi linker fields respectively.

To select a search template, open the field edit page.

Check the documentation for information about configuring field searcher.
