I have an extension with an "event" model with an "address" field related to the "tt_address" model.
In the TCA configuration I have set:
ctrl['searchFields'] = 'address'
Now, if in TYPO3 BE I search by a name present in the tt_address model, it returns the tt_address record but it doesn’t return the "event" record.
Is it possible to configure the TCA so that searching in TYPO3 BE it will returns also the "event" record?
>Solution :
Unfortunately this is not supported. At the time of this writing only the following TCA types are supported in searchFields:
- text
- flex
- slug
- input
This means searching by relations will not work for the global search in the TYPO3 backend. You will need to implement a custom backend module if you need this.
