Hi there, did you miss me and silly questions? :)

Just wondering if (and how) I can use the search function to search for the category names and possibly section names. I can search fields, I get that, but I need to be able to search categories as well.

All the best!

Unfortunately it is not possible with Cobalt 7. We will add it to Cobalt 8.

Hello Michael, just for personal interest... I am curious about the real world use case. If you don´t mind to write a public comment.

Hello, I will also like to have this feature!:)

Example: have a travel site where categories are destinations (countries, regions, cities). Would be nice to include in search a dropdown to select from which categories you would like records. In MR I added select relate field for this but then you have to assign category to record and again in field...double work.

Right. Better to use either categories or MLS field.
