Ahh, nevermind, I just duplicated and customised the edocman search plugin
Relevant query if anyone finds this and wants to do the same:
Code:
// /joomla/plugins/search/edocman/edocman.php : 101 - 103
// replace with
$query = '
SELECT
a.id,
0 AS cat_id,
a.title AS title,
a.short_description,
a.description AS text,
a.indexed_content,
created_time AS `created`,
' . $db->Quote($section) . ' AS section,
"1" AS browsernav
FROM
#__edocman_documents AS a
WHERE
(' . $where . ') AND
(a.user_ids = "") AND
a.published = 1
ORDER BY ' . $order ;
In our case (as hinted at earlier in the thread), we want the indexed content so I'm pulling that too.
