title: Best way to include Dynamic Data List Records in search in Liferay 6.1
body: <p>In Liferay 6.2 it is possible to set the <code>Indexable</code> option on fields of Dynamic Data List Definitions, thereby making them searchable (<a href="https://www.liferay.com/documentation/liferay-portal/6.2/user-guide/-/ai/building-a-list-platform-in-liferay-and-liferay-portal-6-2-user-guide-10-en" rel="nofollow noreferrer">as explained in the Documentation for Liferay 6.2</a>)</p>
  
  <p>I want to include DDL records in my search and have to use Liferay 6.1. I am wondering, what would be the best way to go about this.</p>
  
  <p>Right now I have looked into <a href="https://www.liferay.com/web/raymond.auge/blog/-/blogs/faceted-search-in-liferay-6-1#h.x4j8syetuhr8" rel="nofollow noreferrer">customizing the search</a>, but Dynamic Data Lists are not being mentioned there as an option.</p>
  
  <p>I also looked at <a href="http://www.liferay.com/web/jonas.yuan/blog/-/blogs/indexer-post-processor-hook-in-liferay-6-1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Creating an Indexer Post-Processor hook</a>, but if I understand this correctly, it is only able to alter existing indexing processes.</p>
  
  <p>It does seem possible to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9173877/implement-indexer-on-an-custom-asset-with-liferay-6-1">create Indexers for custom assets</a>, but I wonder if this is the best way to go as the process is probably very time consuming and I don't know if the same process that is applicable to custom assets also works for Dynamic Data Lists in general.</p>
  
  <p>Is there an easier way to achieve searchable Dynamic Data Lists in Liferay 6.1 (like in 6.2) that I am just not seeing?</p>
