Trying to find out how search of custom filed is working especially in peer categories.For example i have a main category database for example and subcategories lv1 eg sub1 and sub2 and in this subcategories i have another sub categories eg sub11 sub12 sub 13 sub21 etc.Creating custom filed and assigning them to articles then when i try to make a search from the top of the category nothing is shown.The custom fields is showing up if i have been in the subcategory only.i have created all indexes again also i have stop all other search plhgins and i have only flexiadvsearch plugin active still cant search from top level even with the name of an article that is ona level 2 subcategory.
Is there any work around to search from the top category and going down to subcategories or search is working only in the same category?

Hello

search will use the current category view configuration

if you have configured to show subcategory items then you can search for them too

well its true that search has more options.But the search i have activated in the category properties in search/filter form i have activate there "use search".It shows the search module but it doesnt include any subcategory custom fields i have created only if i enter in the specific subcategory this is working.General search is working a little bit better cause there i can search with the specific fields.in advance search options.

Hello

do you mean that a custom filter for the category view does not display ?

Hello

if you mean a custom filter, then yes of course
a filter selected in subcategories will not display in its parent category view

Filters displayed are the ones configured (or inherited via configuration) for current category view
