Does indexed search work in typo3 6.1?

Question

I have just finished migrating an old templavoila site to tyop3 6.1 and setup the indexed search (much like it was in 4.7) I can't get indexed search to index any content on any page. I would like to know if this extension actually works with a TV page and what I may have overlooked in it's setup.

Answer 1

indexed_search is a core extension and always works on the current version. If you are using MySQL its also recommended to install index_search_mysql.

To activate indexing just set the options

config {
    #indexed_search
    index_enable = 1
}

And check the results in "Web > Info > Indexed Search". There are also scheduler tasks to clean up indexes.

Answer 2

Actually Merecs answer is wrong. You will have to set

page.config.index_enable = 1

for it to work.
