Description
Hi,
I am considering switching from Bugzilla to Redmine, but the only thing I will miss is the great extended issue search of Bugzilla, from which I need the following features mostly:
- Search for specific Strings in the description of the issue, not the thema.
- Search for specific Strings in the comments of an issue.
Combine the above with:
- Constrain the search to specific resolution types
- Constrain the serach to specific projects
Currently Redmine allows to fulltext search but only in the "current" project, or in all Projects, if I navigate manually to <redmine>/issue (why isn't there a link on the start page? How do I get one?).
If I navigate to a toplevel project, I see the issues of the toplevel project and all subprojects, but cannot constrain further. The field "project" can not even be choosen from the list of filterable fields, althought it would be definitely useful is is not implied by the project, because I find it feasable to filter these.
If I am in the issues list I also cannot combine a text search with the usual filter parameters, which is also not understandable. Searching for the description of a bug or the comment texts shouldn't be too hard, is it? Most databases today (like PostgreSQL) even allow an indexed full text search in fields so speed wouldn't be a concern here also. Why can Bugzilla handle this, and Redmine cannot?
Also I would like to have my commonly searched fields always displayed (maybe with an empty value to the operator), so I don't always have to choose them from the list, but this is secondary.
Please add these features, and Bugzilla will be gone for me.

At least the search in description was easy to create:
In Redmine 2.3.1: app/models/issue_query.rb, ~ line 148:
:values => categories.collect{|s| [s.name, s.id.to_s] }
end
# to search descriptions start
add_available_filter "description", :type => :text
# to search descriptions end
add_available_filter "subject", :type => :text
add_available_filter "created_on", :type => :date_past
add_available_filter "updated_on", :type => :date_past@
