The advanced search does not support searching by multiple types. This is a perfect use case for using a generic base content type that all your special content types extend from, and then using that generic base content type for your advanced search form.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply, out of the box search is not providing search by multiple custom content types. But if we want to do it in other way like we can put multi select drop down for selecting Multiple custom content types having same number of custom properties in alfresco advance search screen.

So, is there any way to do like this ?

Anyone having any hint for the same or any code(like js or ftl) for the same ?

Thanks in advance.
