I have read the wiki. I have read the code. I have tried all the ways to configure it that I could find, including the way you list (but I think you mean "searchable [:association_field1, :association_field2]" - changing the first 2 for a 1. When I configure the associated fields, the code that I think adds the search configuration (rails_admin/config/fields/base.rb lines 73 to 104) does not seem to run - I have tried putting "debugger" statements and print statements (though it does seem to run for the primary model fields. I can't figure out where in between my code and the code that does the configuration that the flow control is getting stopped. I don't really fully understand how all that meta-code works. Can anyone point me in some direction that allows me to find what is going wrong? Is there something special I need to do in the model(s)? It does do the sorting, and it does display it, but it does not set it up for searching.

search will only search the main table's fields. Does this sound
at all familiar to anyone?
Hi Nick,
Yes, I just came across this and did some debugging to see what the
cause is. By default, the searchable field is the referencing field
only (e.g. abstract_model_table.association_name_id). The searchable
fields are configurable, so you can add something similar to the
following in your list method in the config:
config.model do ParentModelName do
list do
field :association do
searchable [:association_field2, :association_field2]
end
end
end
The wiki covers this here (with an example):
https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin/wiki/List
in the Fields searching section.
