Hi everyone,

I know this questions has been asked quite a few times but still ... are there any news about reintroducing the "global search" within Totara?

When do you plan to offer this plugin again?

 Are there any similar plugins that can be used instead and which are easy to implement in Totara?
What global search plugins do you recommend for now?

Hopefully you can help me out here!

Cheers,

Christian

Thanks in advance

I looked into this for a client last year but we didn't pursue it because it requires solr on the server

The discussion topic is here - https://moodle.org/mod/forum/discuss.php?d=227805

Hi Billy,

The functionality is still being worked in, but I believe it will be going in with a limited capability. My understanding is its still experimental.

cheers,

George.

I will reactivate this issue. Moodle plans to integrate Global Search with 3.1. in May. The code is ready and in final checks.

Global Search is based on Solr. See https://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDL-53516

This has come up recently for us.

Client who houses all kinds of policies embedded within courses and would like an easy way for users to find different docs within Totara.

Same in my company and this will be really useful for our training team. Without the global search it creates a lot more administrative efforts. Looking forward to this feature!
