Add function to getSubscribedEvents():

Function to include Taxonomy item ‘tag’ in search index:

Thanks Paul - The solution worked. I ended up creating a simple plugin to perform the indexing.

My only issue: not sure if it’s a TNTSearch issue, but most of my tags include a “-” in-between the phrases (i.e. tvm-01) and when I search for tvm-01, nothing matches. Only when I search for “tvm 01” I get any results.

Any Ideas?

Hi @crusnac, great to hear you got it going with a custom plugin!

Not sure, but my hunch is that since “-” is a minus sign that might be triggering some sort of Boolean operation with TNTSearch. However, I tried to disable that feature in the Plugin Options and the issue remains. Might be worth digging deeper or if possible explore another separator item and see if that works?
