Smart search filter

Is your search working without applying "category condition"? and search by categories you mean faceted search right? I would also look inside the index using luke. Make sure that your index is working without categories and both editable regions are searchable. Technically you can't exclude from index certain regions, unless you build some custom index with custom logic. if page is in the index - both regions should be there as well.

I have two dropdown search filters, one is based on categories and the other is based on tags, I have just tried the tags dropdown without the categories, and the search works. I have rebuilt the index, but still getting the same results. I have installed the Lucene toolbox. and get the following error when trying to open the search index folder. I have also tested the toolbox on the corporate site folder, on my laptop, and this opens the indexes fine ??

Invalid directory at the location, check console for more information. Last exception: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Users\p.carter\Desktop\SiteSearch\segments_65t (The system cannot find the file specified)

Hi again,

Ok i have got Luke working , not sure what i should be looking for in the index regarding the original issue of the search only picking up one region. Could you elaborate more please
