No search within subfolders based on document content
Open Source Document Management System

I am reporting an issue with searching document content. The search function finds document content when initiated from the main directory, but when searching from subdirectories, the system fails to detect those documents.
Full-text search: SQLiteFTS
Default search method: database
Can you provide a screenshot showing how you search? I cannot reproduce this behaviour.
The first screenshot shows a search for a specific word within document contents in the "Document Database" folder—which serves as the main directory—and, as can be seen, it successfully locates files containing the word "klient".
The second search is looking for the same word, but I changed the subdirectory containing the target document; however, the search tool reports that it cannot find it, without searching the other subdirectories.
Take the example of setting up a document repository: the system successfully locates files within the "Document Database" folder—even identifying the specific subdirectory—but if you try to change the search scope to just that subdirectory, it fails to find the documents.
Which version of SeedDMS are you using?
SeedDMS version 6.0.37
Have you managed to find anything out regarding my problem?
No. I cannot reproduce this behaviour. Contact me at info@seeddms.org and I can provide you an extension which helps debugging this issue.
I understand. In that case, I’ve sent the details of the problem to that email address.
