custom field set not showing up in search builder
June 04, 2013, 09:23:46 am
One field set that I created, all the fields show up in the search builder, but the other one, I can't search on any of the fields in search builder.

The only difference is that the one I can't search properly on is a multiple record field set. Both field sets show up fine in advanced search though. Is this just a bug that needs to be fixed? I couldn't find anything about this in the forums.

Is the 'Make Field Searchable" Check box checked on the fields that are not appearing in search builder?

Yes, I meant to mention that in my original post. Thanks for asking.

multiple record custom field sets have some limitations and this is one of them :(

Thanks much, Lobo. Seems weird to me that Advanced Search can do it, but not Search Builder, but I'm happy to know for sure what's going on.

Do you have a large amount of data in these fields or did you do anything unusual to create field options?

Hi CiviFan,
I'm trying to find out the solution as the same OP.  I have a large amount of data that are stored in the "custom field with multiple records" fields and I'm told to export them.  Do you have any workaround on how I can do it?  My thread is below.  Any advice is appreciated!
