Enabling eZFind in extension siteaccesses

Currently, if you use multiple site extensions on a single Exponential install, you can't enable/disable ezFind on a site-by-site basis - it must be enabled in settings/override/site.ini in order to work properly.

Is this a feature or a bug?

The install doc says:

3. Enable the extension in Exponential. Do this by opening settings/override/site.ini.append.php ,
   and add in the [ExtensionSettings] block:
   ActiveExtensions[]=ezfind
   To get the correct templates for ezwebin, ezfind must be enabled before the ezwebin extension.

But if you only enable ezwebin in your site extension siteaccess, you're stuffed?

If I understand you problem, I think but i didn't try it because i don't use ezwebin.
Enable ezfind before ezwebin:

 ActiveExtensions[]=ezfind
 ActiveExtensions[]=ezwebin

if not, it will be nice to give me the solution.

You <i>should</i> be able to use eZ Find in your extension siteaccess, using ActiveAccessExtensions[], and use the internal Exponential search on other sites.

There doesn't appear any way to do this currently without eZ Find failing, unless I'm completely wrong, which I could be.
