Search function
We are still working on getting the error on our search figured out, but in the mean time we were wondering how the search function worked, so we could continue to build our product library in the mean time.
 
Does the search function reference the item title and description as well, or just SEO keywords?
 
Is their a specific format you have to enter the SEO keywords (comma separated, separate line, etc.)?
 
Thanks.

Re: Search function
Search is using SQL fulltext index. It basically searches all the fields in the Product table. So anything that you enter when editing the product will be part of the search.
 
If you can post the exception detail of the error, I can point you the direction to fix it.

Re: Search function
The company that hosts our website doesn't allow us to access the server directly (only through the admin panels of the applications we use). Therefore, we're kind of stuck letting them handle that side of things.
