Hi Ivan

Depending on where you have setup the image pattern, images are detected and index with the rest of the product information. You have to setup the image pattern on the shop in order for that to work - not on the paragraph settings.

Price and stock from the matrixes are another problem though and is currently not possible. The index is not in anyways "context" aware as it is a snapshot at a given time with no user.
The only option i see, is that you create an extender and add a bit of logic and a couple of fields to the index that can give you what you want.

What you can do is to create 2 new fields, i.e:  "ProductHasPricesInShops" and "ProductHasStockInShops" both as string arrays.

For each shop in your solution, find the price, if any, for a given product, and add it to the ProductHasPricesInShops field on the document, i.e. "shop1, shop2".

Do the same for stock locations.

Then on the search, you can create 2 expressions that look into these fields - ProductHasPricesInShops IN Context.Shop.

I hope this makes sense!

Here is an example of creating a IndexBuilderExtender.

class IndexBuilderExtenderExample : IndexBuilderExtenderBase<ProductIndexBuilder>
    {
        public override void ExtendDocument(IndexDocument document)
        {
            if (document.ContainsKey("ID"))
            {
                string productid = (string)document["ID"];
            }

            if (document.ContainsKey("ProductNumber"))
            {
                string productNumber = (string)document["ProductNumber"];
                document.Add("ProductNumberCleaned", productNumber.Replace(".", string.Empty));
            }

            document.Add("CustomField", DateTime.Now);
        }
    }
