1. You have to check the "Callable" checkbox to tell the index that "searchableText" is a method and not just an attribute. 2. Selecting an interface means telling the index "Add (only!) objects of this type (=implementing this interface) to the index". This is not 100% correct - the index will add objects which can be adapted to the search interface, too. -> If you have objects that don't implement ISearchableText, you won't get them indexed without writing an adapter like this (untested!): adapter.py: from zope.index.text.interfaces import ISearchableText from zope.component import adapts from zope.interface import implements MyObjectToSearchable(object) implements(ISearchableText) adapts(IMyObject) def __init__(self,context): self.context=context def searchableText(self): return self.context.data configure.zcml: <adapter factory=".adapter.MyObjectToSearchable" /> Sorry, I'll add this adapter stuff to the howto asap :-) .
