Problem Definition

By default, Confluence's search only returns results for pages, blog posts, people, files/attachments or spaces.

It would be helpful if there were a default filter a user could set as it can also return results containing custom contents, such as questions and answers, calendars and others.

Suggested Solution

Include custom contents by default on search results and allow user-specific default filters.

Workaround

Manually select the custom type on the advanced search under the Type filter.
