As you see above, I want to make the Address1:City column searchable. When I insert somethings in the search box right up corner, it searches only by name.

Is there any way to change this?

Hi,

Thank you for your query.

Please make sure the Adress1:City column is searchable.

Follow these steps:

Go to Advanced Settings -> Customization -> Customize the System.

Expand Entities -> <Entity Name> -> Fields.

Open the Field and make sure Searchable is set to Yes.

Save and Publish.

Hi,

My bad, i believe searchable configuration makes the field to be searched in Advance Find.

You need to add Address 1:City as Find Columns in Quick Find Views.

Go to Advanced Settings -> Customization -> Customize the System.

Expand Entities -> <Entity Name> -> Views.

Open the Quick Find View and in click on Add Find Columns.

Choose Address 1:City column and Save the view.

Publish and Refresh.
