Bug #3875
closedseraching for items does not return individual item
0%
Description
When searching the particular items using keywords, it returns entire exam rather than individual items. for example, serching for "amino", it returns entire exam sets on the web not just individual items having "amino".
we need to give back individual items rather than entire exam set when people search for items by using "meta data" or "keywords".
similary Web should have a function that user can add individual items into cart rather than entire exam set. for example, if i found 3 items having "amino" on three seperate exam sets, i should be able to add just those items not entire three exam sets into data cart.

we had this interface early on in the project - at least for searching. it was quite confusing (even for me).
i'm not how to best merge the two "modes" (assessment- vs. item-based).
the data is stored at the assessment-level so for any given item, we do have to load the entire assessment data and then select a subset from that; then merge that with data associated with any other of the items.
Would it be confusing to mix Items and Assessments in the same data cart? I'm not even sure how that would look. Similarly, would search results include both "types" of records?

determined it was out of scope to switch to items-based interface for searching
