Hello

Is there any way to use a custom field as filter in backend, and moreover a search on this specific field ?!

If I'm not clear enough, I have some items with :
- field "notes" : - FLEXIcontent - Text (number/time/etc/custom validation) -

I'd like to find all the items with this field with content "Lisbon"

is there any way to do it using backend, or do I have to set a mysql query ?

thx for your help !

yes you can
go to global config on check administration tabs

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?

if I go on configuration >> backend managers >> items manager >> apparence >> custom filters, I do not have this field. Maybe because it's a text field ? or did I miss something else ? thx !
