Custom field - Search in Full-Text

[sami]

I added a field, and I want to activate the Full-Text search looks up for it
please help

did you set the field to be searchable?
can you find it in Adv Search?

[sami]

Yes, and I can find it in advanced search.
I need that in Full-Text search.

I can make code changes if needed.

[sami]

Another solution is to make 'Find Members' searches for custom fields.

for full text search, u'll need to modify the code here:

CRM/Contact/Form/Search/Custom/FullText.php

Sami - if you explain the outcome you want there might be other work arounds you can use - eg you said 'add field to Find Members' - why

Do you know that you can display results from Adv Search as Memberships?

[sami]

Yes I understand.
The scenario is like this, I'm adding a field that will be used for quick search - Barcode - and the results should be Memberships, I can't use advanced search because it would take time to make several searches using a barcode scanner.

I already started digging into the code, but it's not easy code tho, I'm going through the documentation
