  My WP ‘search’ function does not react to tags from my blog posts … does anybody have this problem?

  I’m using Redoable Lite theme by Dean J Robinson.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  When creating Categories or Tags we use single words. If we use 2 or even 3 the Categories and Tags will be accepted but what you have done here by compounding them as if they are all strung together is unacceptable.

  media/video art and music videos :: free style + ambient + breakbeat

  Do this instead – each one separate
  media
  video
  art video
  music video
  free style
  ambient music
  break beat

  thanks for your reply, but separating tags is not the problem: I always separate them, especially names of the artists featured in my posts. yesterday I did a several try-outs and nothing worked, but when I checked the same this morning the search did react. I noticed that some names did not react if typed in small letters, but did when I used block letters for initials

  Easy to answer: Search does not include tags, just titles and contents.
