I've created a metadata property in search which is mapped to a custom site column. I've ran a full crawl countless amounts of times. The crawl log finds the particular item I'm looking at fine with no errors or warnings. But when I use SearchCoder it's bringing back nothing (the column doesn't even appear in the results part). SearchCoder aside - when having a look in central admin for example items that have this field populated - there's none.

What I've tried:

  • Recreated the metadata property.
  • Deleted the custom column from the content type and re-adding.

Not knowing what the property is and where can make resolving this harder, ie is it blocked by being out of scope (people in all content search). But since central admin isn't showing values, it may be worth pulling it apart, is it a managed metadata property? Is it multi value? Have you set it up correctly? Is it mapped and indexed? Do you store data from it to display in search results? Did you clear the index and do a full crawl (I wouldn't do this on a live server if you can help it) Does the property have values in, what sort are they.. etc – Hugh Wood Oct 30 '12 at 13:12
