Thank you for replying me
I tried flatpages =
FlatPage.objects.filter(Q(title__contains=search_str) |
Q(content__contains=search_str))
products = Product.objects.filter(Q(title__contains=search_str) |
Q(description__contains=search_str))
but it gave me error
Exception Type: NameError
Exception Value: global name 'Q' is not defined
If you can help me and tell what is the right syntax i ould really
