It doesn’t look like searching in a table searches the comments. Can you help or is this a feature you are adding? Definitely need full text search across everything

i actually look forward to seeing such ability to search everything within the same base. if there r multiple tables within that base, the ability to search in all of them & also within each field will be a great help.

hope this comes through very soon.

+1 for searching within comments.

Often we’d need to find mentions of something in a discussion, and it’s impossible to find again without comments being included in search.

+1 If you can’t search comments it makes it precarious adding any information in there - and yet that’s where discussion for each item goes. Alternatively we could just make a text column that would be searchable but not have @mention capabilities. This seems like a critical feature.
