Searchable Image Captions
|

It would be nice to have image captions be searchable. We have modified ArtMan so that captions are WYSIWYG (using HTMLArea) and then modified our templates so that clickable thumbnails of images appear on the left side of the page with wordy captions on the right--hence an entire "article" may consist of nothing more than 12 or 15 images and their captions; currently, these pages won't show up in search results.
I realize that I can buy your search engine product to get around this, but I was hoping to save the extra $ per each ArtMan installation. Besides, though most people don't have such lengthy captions, I'm sure it would be nice for even shorter captions to be searchable.
Thanks!

Hi!
Thanks for your suggestion. Actually, the upcoming version of Article Manager (which is currently being QA'd) has functionality which would allow you to do precisely this: search the image captions! Try glancing over our Article Manager forum from time to time, or signing up for our newsletter - as soon as we release it we'll notify people through there. And concerning the actual implemention of the search, once it's out, you could either post a question in the forums or send us an email. We'll gladly help you get it going on your site.
