 * Dear reader,
 * This might sound as a newbie question, which i’m obviously am, but is it also
   possible to use the Ultimate WP Query Search Filter to search for a selfmade 
   table inside the WP database?
 * The thing is, i have created an input form for user with which they can upload
   all kind of text and files which get stored in a selfmade database (table). Though
   i also want the user to be able to search for this data by the use of checkboxes.
   Though, if i am not mistaken UWQSF plugin only can search for meta / posts? I
   got no clue if i can make this plugin also filter search with checkboxes for 
   the imputed database data?
 * So the question is, is this possible and if so, how?
 * Thank you in advance!

 * No, it can’t. It only work with WP default table.
