Full text search for the frontend.

[bobdenotter]

It should be possible to use full text search on the frontend of the website.
In my opinion, it should be a text-input + button (coming from a template, like _sub_searchbox.twig or something similar, so it can be easily overridden).
It should search through all available contenttypes and return those records that are published. The results should be displayed, also using either a default template, or a template that is overridden in the theme or by the user.

Searching itself should be implemented in such a way that it will work, regardless of the chosen Database-type. If i'm correct, that means we can't just use Full-text search, because MySQL's InnoDB doesn't support it.
(which, imho, is really stupid, more info )

Please elaborate so people can help. You mean a search bar which can be used to search through all content types?

Looking into this one asap!

Cool! Might as well assign it to yourself, then. ;-)

(i've been off the radar for a couple of days, by the way. Had a bit of the flu. #sneeze #cough )

I've been quite busy myself as well and I don't know how much time I'll be having in the next week, so I didn't want to create expectations ;-)

Made some progress. Will try to add it in the next couple of days.
