hi there,
Hope someone can help me.
I have created some custom class in the folder. When I am searching from the user site, I am getting those custom classes as result. Is there any way to filter the search on class id's.
While creating the class all the attributes are non-searchable.
I been searching the fourms for last two hours with no luck.
Please help.

Try the advanced search, it allows filtering by class and attribute.

I agree - we usually hide advanced search as well. However, looking at the templates for advanced search should allow you to see the form fields that control class filtering on search, and would provide some clues as to how to modify the regular search to do some of the same things.
I am not 100% sure, but if you saw something like this:
<select name="SearchContentClassID"> <option value="2">Article</option>
in the advanced search page, you could submit something similar as a hidden input on the standard search override. Or you could take entire components of the advanced search and put them in your standard search override.
Script start
Module start 'content'
Module end 'content'
Script end
