    you need to modify the onContentSearch fucntion with your custom query for portfolio.There is $text parameter which will have the value of whatever you will put to search. then you need to build the query to fetch the result which have the content like the search term. Hope you will understand. – Toretto Aug 25 '15 at 12:53

    Did you ask the developers if they have a search plugin? As I said just go to the plugins/search folder and make a copy of the articles plugin and rename everything as needed. – Elin Aug 26 '15 at 11:44
