Our users enter reports into a "jos_forms_incidents" MySQL table via a Fabrik2 entry form.
Now I want to give a class of registered users access to the information contained in the reports and make them searchable.
My idea was to let them search the material as if it was content material/articles via the PixSearch "shell" for the content search engine in Joomla. But that doesn't work as the search engine doesn't know of the table's existence.
What I think I need is a search plugin for the reports table that will index the result to the normal search component, and the results will therefore also turn up in PixSearch (or any other search function that uses com_search).
Here's what the input form looks like. It will give you a rough idea of the size and type of fields in the table.
If possible, my ideal would be to turn these reports into searchable content somehow.
Or is there some other way to do this with Fabrik?
