Hi,
I'd like to be able to add more fields to the list of available fields to search in the product search form. In my case, since I'm planning a migration from an old software, I need to include product information that doesn't fit in the current structure. Information like store and logistics references only for internal use.
Those have to be available for searching. My initial plan was to concatenate those into the Tags field but it also seems to be missing from the available fields to search in. Even though it would be far from ideal anyway.
The search form flexibility is key for us. I don't know which would be the best approach for this feature but I'd take example from the import products wizard. In there if you manually add (by SQL) a new column to the main product table (ps_product) for example then the wizard automatically picks it up and adds it to the list of database fields available to assign to the csv file columns to import.
Best regards
New

Hello Petete!
What kind of fields do you want to view ?
We can demonstrate all fields in product table. This mean, when you have added new fields in the product table - this (or those) field ( fields) will be shown in search form by Store Manager for PrestaShop.

Hi,
You are right. It does that already. I didn't realize that you have to restart the store manager to get the new fields listed. Nice.

Now that we are at it, it'd be nice to add tags field and other languages too(description, short description,...) without having to create foreign keys manually.

Right now, you can search short description for current language language only - see screenshot - http://screencast.com/t/ihDrdOTmfoSh
