The default search is not looking in custom fields.
Custom fields are rather used as facets to help users filter results.
I am also facing the same issue. In earlier versions, custom fields were getting indexed.
This problem may cause huge problems to me since I have a very huge dataset and some part of it has custom fields indexed, which happened on earlier WPSOLR version and new set which has no custom fields indexed.

Custom fields were never searchable in WPSOLR.
There is a workaround (which I explained to amathur in March), adding the custom field to the default searched text field in schema.xml:
<copyField source="custom_field_name_srch" dest="text"/>
Verify first that your custom field is indexed, by adding this query field to a Solr query:`
&fq=custom_field_name_srch:*`
You’ll need to re-index all.
Then why does the SOLR Options screen in your plugin show “Custom Fields to be indexed”???
Also, above solution never worked. But custom fields did get indexed and now they are not getting indexed.
Please provide a complete answer on how to manage custom fields indexing.
Still waiting for an answer for this???

Custom fields are now searchable with WPSOLR 5.1
this really came to settle because I have that desire indexing plugins like All in One SEO Pack Pro generates custom fields but I see that indexes the information they collect these fields

You just have to select your plugin custom fields in the “Indexing options” subtab, then reindex all.
