Search function - allow to not search for archived entries

The BigTreeModule search function, it would be nice add an extra argument to have the option to search all entries or non archived entries.

Re: Search function - allow to not search for archived entries

I try to keep the base methods on BigTreeModule agnostic to what the underlying table might be but I can see the use case. We'd need some way for caching the table structure against the extended class and then the search method could know whether it supports archived/unarchived.

I forgot about caching, guess it wasn't as easy as I thought it would be. Thanks for the consideration.
