Hello,

Shared articles do not appear in the search results, even though the search-plugins are installed.

We have an installation with various sites:

masterSite
slaveSiteA
slaveSiteB
..

In slaveSiteA we have several Menuitems of type 'Multi Sites Article Sharing » MultiSites Article Layout' with Articles from masterSite.

- The Multisite Search Plugins (Content and Category) are activated in slaveSiteA
- MasterDB is selected in the plugins
- Type of link: local

None of the shared articles appear in the search results.

Setting 'Articles' in the plugin to all finds all articles of the master site, not just the shared ones. Setting it to 'off', finds none of them.

How can I have just the shared articles (accessible via Menu in slaveSiteA) appear in the search results? We are not using smart search.

Our versions:
Joomla: 2.5.8
Multisites: 1.2.97 (Patches 1.2.91)
Multisites search: 1.0.2 (bought today)

kind regards

-Stephan

Verify that you have correctly selected the slave site for which you want that the "Multisites Search plugins" must perform the search.

So go in the plugin management and verify that you have selected one or more slave sites in which you want to search.
Otherwise, the search will not be performed.
Only the selected websites will be search for.

You have to repeat this operation in each slave site to declare which websites must be queries.

So you have to do that in the master to declare the list of slave sites.
In the slaves sites, you have to declare the master when you want to search in it.
