After several hours searching the web and forum ,  I am sorry but the search module function K2 tools does not work at all.

 

Joomla : 1.5.22

K2: 2.4.1

php 5.2.9

MySql : 5..1.36

tested:

K2 search plugin ,     enabled,

K2 search plugin ,     DISABLED,

2 tags added , test   and test2

only 4 k2 items, 3 have same tags , 1 none

NO joomla cats or news items, fresh install no sql sample data used

 

search returns blank

 

according to debug log  , it does not look trough tags at all so the result is 0

 

 

#SELECT COUNT(*)  FROM jos_k2_items AS i  LEFT JOIN jos_k2_categories c  ON c.id = i.catid  WHERE i.published = 1  AND i.access <= 0  AND i.trash = 0  AND c.published = 1  AND c.access <= 0  AND c.trash = 0  AND ( i.publish_up = '0000-00-00 00:00:00' OR i.publish_up <= '2010-12-29 18:22:03' )  AND ( i.publish_down = '0000-00-00 00:00:00' OR i.publish_down >= '2010-12-29 18:22:03' )  AND MATCH(i.title, i.introtext, i.`fulltext`,i.image_caption,i.image_credits,i.video_caption,i.video_credits,i.extra_fields_search,i.metadesc,i.metakey) AGAINST ('test*' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

 

 

am I missing a setting?
