Trouble with Phoca Download Category Finder & Finder

[vasil.a]

Hello to all, hopefully you can help me out with my issue with the Finder's plugins.

I have Phocadownload installed and i am using "List Of Categories (Categories View)" for a lot of files so i need some kind of a search that cloud locate the file that the user is searching.

I installed File's Finder first enable - > category view, then i tried with file's view and last Directory .. But nothing happened when i tried searching, so i installed the Category Finder plugin but still it dose not find anything (even both enable or just 1).

Can you please guide me on how and what to do so people can actually use the Search to find it, because we are talking about 2,000 items per category.

Hi,
1.) finder plugins work with joomla! 'Smart Search' Component, not 'Search' Component.
2.) you need to index your Phoca Download files inside 'Smart Search' Component (if they shall be found...)

Kind regards,
Benno
