Hi Liz,

1) Please dont apologise for using the forums - this is what the are for.

2) You are not missing anything at all - the Help in this case is out of date, and you are completely right. Thanks for spotting this - I'll update.

Global Search was phased out after v1 I believe because it took so long. Could you tell me what version you are using and what you are searching for?

regards,

George.

Hi Liz,

1) My understanding is there are moves afoot to reintroduce the global search in Moodle 2.6/2.7 also there is work going on with an enhanced catalogue capability, but I couldnt give any dates.

2) As a workaround in the meantime would it be possible for you to make customised reports availble to the user under the "My reports" tab? 

cheers,

George.

Hi Liz,

I think a making a course report available to Learners (under My Reports) would go some way to solving this. If you have the filters set (for example) to include "Course name and Summary" & "Course Content" then that would cover resources if Im reading you right. Could you be a bit more specific about "database entries"?

cheers,

George.

Actually it looks like Global Search missed the Moodle 2.6 feature freeze, see this comment:

https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-31989?focusedCommentId=246375&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-246375

So it's likely to be in Moodle 2.7 and hence Totara 2.7 (which is due to be released in just over a year from now).

Simon
