You say it is a template styling issue but I cant see any evidence of that. I believe it is either a query issue or a K2 extra fields issue.

Hi BBC,

I've just realized that I am not actually using K2 search but Joomla Search module.

It's working fine and returning the K2 items but just not returning anything from the extra fields for the snippet.

Would you still like to see a URL?

Is there any fix for the Joomla core code that would resolve this?

Thanks

Give some URL. Don´t expect to much. I remember long ago when i changed templates at same site, this option dissapeared.

So it maybe because of template, maybe not.

It is something different.

Check if your template use override for com_search. And try to rename that folder temporary.

It is Beez template. It comes with com_search in. But it sholud be allways updated. It is Joomla folder.

How old is your Joomla version ?

Are you talking about my site? All you get is the item name and the section ... no snippet. Do a search for "ruskin" and you will see what I mean.

Or am I not understanding you correctly?

At my site. I have text in all search results. But not the words from extra fileds.

Maybe it is not possible yet in K2. That commercial search module use some plugin for indexing of extra fields.
