Searching for category term returns no results

How do I have S&F Pro search in the category terms? For example, I have a category called “Case Studies”, but when I search for that, I only get one result (and it’s because it has the phrase “case studies” in the post content).

The Search & Filter Pro Text Search field uses the standard WordPress search, so looks only in the Post Title and Content. To help you control this better, on the form’s Advanced settings tab you will see 2 settings for Relevanssi.

The documentation for this is here:

You would need to install and activate the free Relevanssi plugin as well.

Relevanssi must be set up as you want, and then you must and build its index (make sure it is indexing the desired post types, custom fields AND any taxonomy that you want to search).
