Seblod 4, Joomla 5 and com_search #813

Closed webmasterpaca closed 2 months ago

webmasterpaca commented 2 months ago

Hi, Com_search is no longer available with Joomla 5. It is recommended to use com_finder instead. With Joomla 4.4.1 and Seblod 4.3.1, so I tried to disable extensions "plg_search_cck" from the search directory. Seblod has stopped working. Shouldn't we replace the "plg_search_cck" extension in the "search" directory with a "plg_finder_cck" extension installed in the finder directory? Thanks

Hi @webmasterpaca,

You should not disable the "plg_search_cck" it is required to use all SEBLOD List & Search features. It is not really related to com_search.

Without a "plg_finder_cck" plug-in you are already able to search for content items (i.e a custom WYSIWYG field), if you enable the following plug-in (Joomla! Content Article Object)

and you define from which view (Content or Intro) the content should be indexed, from your Content Type (using a Joomla! Article object)

image

and then Index the content via:

image

It would find and output results (using the Joomla! Smart Search view) which is not easy to custom o extend. Is there any reason and requirement for you to use the Joomla! Smart Search component instead of SEBLOD List & Search capabilities?

Thanks, Sebastien

Good morning, There is no particular reason for me to use Joomla's smart search component instead of Sebblod's search lists. My thinking simply came from the abandonment of the com_search component on Joomla 5. But as this extension is not linked to Seblod, this does not pose a problem. Thank you for your reply, Sebastien
