I can't seem to find any of my new "information" pages in the OC3 search bar.

From what I can see only keywords added to "Product Tags" come up in the search bar.

How do I add "Product Tags" to a new "information" page?

Hi!

The built-in search only works with products. It does not show other entities such as categories, manufacturers, information pages, etc.

I recommend looking for a search extension that has this functionality.

Thanks for the reply.

I did more searching around and found out that there is not easy solution of modification to make this work.

There are a few expensive extensions that would do the job but they are overkill for my needs.

I'm not a coder, but probably you can find your solution in adjusting the search query within the catalog/model/catalog/product.php file, in which you expand the query to also search the tags.

They're probably not overkill because they likely make the search much better across everything.
