Allow to fine tune search columns about querybuilder

[helsner]

I'm not sure i fully understand but could it be that you want the following:

To get individual table fields into the querybuilder you just need to adapt the table TCA.

$TCA[‘ctrl’][‘queryFilterFields’] enables the wanted fields as filter option. If not defined $TCA[‘ctrl’][‘searchFields’] acts as default.

Appreciate the quick response.

Yes, I need to configure searchFields which also affects the TYPO3 BE search. Once I have updated my records I just access them in the FE but have no need to search for them in the backend - or fill them up the moment I create the record. For now I have helped myself by adding those fields to the searchFields config and will remove them once existing records (~400) have been updated.
It would be neat to be able to access all columns despite the searchField config. Or at least provide an option to toggle searchField : string vs. allowAllFields : boolean (new config)
