Hello,

I've added a custom field as Multiple Select Type and selected as searchable.

Now It seems that if in the input field of the advanced search I write down a value of this field, I receive no match as result of my query.

The only way to have result it's to not insert any value in the input field and select the value in the drop down menu (Limit Field).

Is it correct? there is not any way to extract result in the traditional way? My custom field is related to all european states. I think that a user writes down immediately the state is looking for rather than choose it form the drop down menu.

That is intended behavior since custom field limits are handled differently than searching within the content of articles.

Do you think is it possibile to extend the search changing the .php code?

I'm sure it's possible if you're familiar with PHP.
