Searching displaying 0 results in subcategory

[amymck]

Hi,

I am running Joomla 2.5.7 Stable and virtuemart 2.0.18a. I have installed the module mod_virtuemart_search. I have a parent category that has no products. Within the parent category I have subcategories e.g. Girls, Boys. These subcategories have products within them and I can navigate to these subcategories and browse the products. When I search using the mod_virtuemart_search module I get '0 results found' and from the URL it looks like it is only searching the parent category which has no products, just subcategories with products. Why are the products in the subcategories not showing up in the search results?

Any help would be much appreciated!!

Thanks!
