Hello,

I need to create a custom user field that I need to be indexed for search (I'm doing a faceted search using Xuntos).

I've tried creating a custom field using the ExamineEventHandler and the GatheringNodeData function, it all appears to work fine on the surface - however when I rebuild the index I don't see the the new field in the users fields table. But when I search I can see it has been indexed - how to I get my custom field to appear in the list?

Heres my code:-

private void ExamineEventHandler_GatheringNodeData(object sender, IndexingNodeDataEventArgs e)
    {

        if (e.IndexType != UmbracoExamine.IndexTypes.Content)
            return;

        var fields = e.Fields;

        var tagKey = new StringBuilder();

        foreach (var field in fields)
        {
            try
            {
                if (field.Key == "npt")
                {
                    if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(field.Value))
                    {
                        var array = field.Value;
                        List<string> tmp = Regex.Replace(array, "[^0-9a-zA-Z/,]+", "").Split(',').ToList();
                        foreach (var tag in tmp)
                        {
                            tagKey.Append(tag + ",");
                        }

                    }
                }
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                // Do nothing
            }

        }

        // Add field to index
        e.Fields.Add("nptLocations", tagKey.ToString().TrimEnd(','));
    }
