Add possibility to replace queryset filter with custom function #138

Since we would need this functionality I already modified the necessary code locally so I could quickly create a PR for it, if this feature is approved to be added. |

Since it is not possible to improve the search currently a check was implemented to look for a custom search function in the model to filter. If one is found it is called and the result is validated to be a queryset of the expected type.

This would solve #120 too |

Description
We ran into the problem that a search term (on a non-wagtail page model) was resulting in more than 100 results that could therefore not be fully displayed. The entry we wanted to find was not included in the 100 items and therefore the search (icontains-filter) was not prioritizing our expected result.
Suggestion
It would be great if one could implement a function like
autocomplete_custom_queryset_filterin the model-to-search so that one can implement a different prioritization or improve the search in general as needed.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
