The basic search function searches the fields listed below. Advanced Search functions differently.
Products/Variants:

Entities:
- Name
Search can be used on your site 2 ways:
Control:
You can embed the basic search control into your skin wherever you would like the search box to appear, such as:
<aspdnsf:Search ID="ctrlSearch" runat="server" CssClass="search" SearchButtonCaption="Go"
SearchCaption="<%$ Tokens: StringResource, common.cs.82 %>" SearchTextMinLength="<%$ Tokens:AppConfigUSInt, MinSearchStringLength %>"
SearchTextMinLengthInvalidErrorMessage="<%$ Tokens: StringResource, search.aspx.2 %>"
ValidateInputLength="true" ShowValidationMessageBox="true" ShowValidationSummary="false" />
Basic Search Page Link:
You can link directly to the /search.aspx page, which has a form built-in that customers can use.
For the stock base skin in versions 9400+ this is easily done in the Topic: Template.TopNavigation
Additional Notes:
Version 9400 introduces a new AppConfig:
SearchDescriptionsByDefault which allows the search to include product descriptions as well.
Version 9410 introduces a new xml package based display for the Basic Search (and the Advanced Search), selectable with the AppConfigs: XmlPackage.SearchPage (and XmlPackage.SearchAdvPage)
It is recommended that Full Text Search not be enabled in order for the Basic Search to operate effectively. You may want to experiment with FTS enabled/disabled to determine your preferred behavior.
