   Love the WP-Filebase plugin, thanks.

   But I can't seem to get Search to work. Maybe I'm not understanding.

   I have uploaded a few files, given them titles, descriptions etc, but not attached them to posts.

   I then try searching (not within wp-admin but using Search on the actual site). I tried a search using a word in the file name (activity). It was also in the Title and Description of the file I uploaded. But Search brings up no results.

   Should I expect Search to find and return files from their filenames and/or titles?

   Thanks

   I'm on the same boat, Aileen. I wonder if you found a solution to this issue?

   Thanks so much,

   Currently, the search does only work for files that are attached to a post or page. The post is listed in search results, not the actual file.

   Okay, thanks for the reply. At least we understand what to expect.
   Thanks.

   I very much need to "search" works for searching files.
   That might write a widget for this! or changes in existing ones.
