    Is it possible to set the search module to search through categories?

    For example, I have several products under the category “storage”.  The products don’t necessarily have “storage” in the product description.  When I search for “storage”, the products under the “storage” category but without “storage” in the description or title don’t show up.

    Am I setting something wrong?

    Hi, Melissa - no, the search goes through titles and entries (as specified) but not through the category names and category custom fields.  You could always submit a feature request for that.
