Yes, it should index all of text inside the the grid controls such as RTE, Paragraph, Headline, Quote etc. It does become more complicated when content is held in special controls built using LeBlender or Archetype. Is any of that possible at the moment?
Surely the point is that the package indexes the html outputed by the page, so whatever 'things' whether Grid or whatever else you use to form the page, it doesn't matter, the content will still be indexed?
@Tom - ideally yes, I was hoping to get an answer from the dev to say whether it would or not. Indexing usually happens long before the page output, and grid content is stored separately to normal content. Using out-of-the-box Umbraco search does NOT index grid content, so it seems anyone wanting to implement that has to once again scrounge around for a solution themselves. I'll test this package and report back.
This package uses an httpwebrequest to render and index the page html as the viewer would see it, after you publish it .. so as said whether you use a grid or not doesn't matter.
@Tom C - you're right, I just wasn't looking at the details of this project correctly. It does work correctly with Grid content, which is a welcome change with Umbraco 7.2+. It's still utterly unbelievable that Umbraco don't provide a searcher that works with Grid content.
Sorry I couldn't mark your reply as the answer - there's still some weird bugs with the new our.umbraco website.
V7 Grid Support
Is there any way to get this to work indexing 7.2 Grid content?
Hi schlubadub,
can you please explain bit more, what kind of indexing are you looking for
indexing on element?

Mehul, Any ideas?
