How do you add fields into the columns viewed in search?

[Ian Mumford]

When you have searched for an Issue you can stipulate what information is returned by using the columns drop down menu and select the desired information.  My question is how do you add to these columns as there is a bespoke issue type missing from the column drop down menu.

Check that the missing field is not already included in the result as the list of fields won't list ones already there.

If that's not the issue, check that it has a "searcher" (admin -> custom fields -> your field -> edit).
