Simple search form to test searching within Grid Field not returning results

thatdeadpixel 11 Oct 2016 19:19 question, complete

I'm mostly just doing some testing to see exactly how searching within a Grid field will work so I setup a test form with some data similar to real data on an upcoming website build.

I set each Grid Field to "Include in Search".

FORM PAGE:

RESULTS PAGE (/home/results/):

 
 {exp:low_search:results 
  query="{segment_3}" 
   exact="search:products_specifications" 
   channel="products" 
 } 
    {title}

 {if no_results} 
       
       Sorry, nothing found 
     

 {/if} 
 {/exp:low_search:results}

   You've got this set as the parameter: search:products_specifications
   
   That would point to a field. If it points to a Grid field, you need to specify the column name, too. So: search:products_specifications:column_name

   Thanks Low, that worked. The way i had it setup previously would work if it was a text field, correct?
