[chrisaldrich] What are WordPress people using for search within their sites these days? I feel like I'm missing something since they took the search out of core ages ago. Especially for private or draft posts.
# 
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "WordPress people using for search within their sites these days" yet. Would you like to create it? (Or just say "WordPress people using for search within their sites these days is ____", a sentence describing the term)
# [chrisaldrich] Worse, search doesn't seem to be looking within any of the post kinds data, so it's nearly impossible to find any of those posts....
# [chrisaldrich] yes, built in seems horrible... and I'm noticing things are even worse since I quit putting titles on title-less posts a year or so ago... at least search would find those since it searched that box.
# [chrisaldrich] I was searching the other day for all the episodes of Breaking Bad I've watched and couldn't find any of them using the built in search. I feel like I should maybe have been tagging them all along so that I could find them as a collection or "archive".
# [chrisaldrich] surely there's got to be a way to add fields into the built in search... especially for custom post types and new taxonomies...
# [chrisaldrich] will do!
