Well, paragraph title is usually not used in the frontend and is not searched. This is by design.

 

We are planning a minor brushup of the searchmodule due august/september. It could be part of the update to include this possibility.

Hi Nicolai,

I can see now, three years later, that this feature has not yet been implemented... I think it is vital to have this option, because you can use the paragraph title for many many things, making it way easier for the webpage editor to keep a correct styled website!! We use the ParagraphHeader tag all the time and it has first now come to our attention that it is not searched... Quite critical!!!

Hi,
I agree with Jacob, and know of many sites that use the Paragraph Header to define H1-H2 for the reasons Jacob states. 

However, I do see a problem in that this would result in all paragraph headers becoming searchable (which is not desirable), so it probably would be better that one added two optional fields to the editor, that can be used for H1 and H2 (or any other purpose) and that are searchable.  One should be able to turn these fields on/off under the Management Center.  This is something I've seen in other CMS solutions.

My five cents worth :-)
