Alfresco 3.1 : Advanced Search works for WCM content ?

[vipul]

Hi All,

I have created a web project which contains many files. When I try to search (From Advanced Search) any word or file name which exists in web project, Advanced search is not returning the result.

Environment:
Alfresco 3.1
DB : MySQL 5.0
OS: Win-XP.

Is there any configuration I am missing OR search will not work for WCM folders "avmplainfolder"    ?

Two things to watch.   a: you are searching either a live or staging sandbox.
b: you have created a snapshpot of the sandbox you want to search.

Yes. But still no luck.
a: Content is there in staging sandbox.
b: It is also exists in latest snap-shot on staging .

To be more clear: This is about "Advanced Search" from "top right corner", not the "Search website" in side the sand-box.
My aim is to use "Advanced search" functionality for custom metadata search.

I am interested in using the ADVANCED SEARCH for searching inside web projects instead of the SEARCH WEBSITE when browsing a website.  is this even possible with configuration right now?

Seems like its not just by configuration.
But it is possible, by  extended jsps and classes like SearchContext for AVM, Navigation Bean or may be few more.
