I’m glad you are brining up search as it’s such a huge piece when a Fibery instance grows with content, and we use a lot of the power of Fibery to build out our entities with links, etc. and as a result we have a ton of content in here I’d love to see more searchable.

I would like to add my own very needed [Index comments in search](https://community.fibery.io/t/index-comments-in-search/1688) to this mix, here’s why I think it’s relevant:

1. You are suggesting in your mock up the ability to choose among ALL an Entities’ fields within search. In reality, Comments are also a field! When I’ve communicated with the Notion support team about their on lack of ability to search comments because they aren’t indexed in Notion either, the will respond telling me that ALL fields in their pages are planned, similar to your suggestion to have things like formula fields, doc names, etc. searchable.

2. @Eugene_Vabishchevich 's request for [Add search by fields](https://community.fibery.io/t/add-search-by-fields/2178) is related, as again, Comments are fields. We have a similar situation where we have to write in Rich Text boxes info that really should be in Comments, because you can’t search comments after the fact.

This is also a great post that talks well about some of the need of search, including indexing comments:

As I input more and more data in Fibery, not being able to search properly become a very big pain point, one that prevent me to use Fibery with my team, and still as a PoC for now. At minimum: full text search on all fields: will allow to search in email, url fields at least. Contrary to what stated here [Add filter for "closed" entities in all searches (and/or other indicator of entity status)](https://community.fibery.io/t/add-filter-for-closed-entities-in-all-searches-and-or-other-indicator-of-entity-status/1052) only name and rich text fields seems searchable filter types: mul…

Thanks!
