TYPO3 9.5.7: Cannot unlock indexed_search indexing module for editors

Question

I have a page with a file link content element. When I add a new (pdf) file or override an existing, the index data of this page is not updating. I have to delete the index data manually at the indexing module to get it work. I could live with that, if the editor of the webpage could use this module too. But I cannot unlock this module für my editors, because it's missing at the module list.

Answer 1

EXT:indexed_search backend module is per default registered with admin access only.

You can change the current configuration for registered module in your custom site package extension in ext_tables.php for indexed_search module access for editors with following line:

$GLOBALS['TBE_MODULES']['_configuration']['web_IndexedSearchIsearch']['access'] = 'group,user';

Then you can unlock this module für your editors.
