Hey Ryan

Ok so lets try a couple of things…

1) remove the other plugin you installed
2) create a new meta field, assign some values to a few posts (call it something else, and only enter values as whole numbers (ie 2, 10 etc – no currency symbols and no decimal places).
3) create a new field in your search from for S&F – setup as range slider

Let me know when you have done this and if its working, if its not I’ll need to see a link in order to be able to help further.

Thanks

*edit* making this visible for any users with WCK

OK I can see the problem here

WCK is storing the meta data in a non standard way…

Basically, if you had a price meta field, you would expect the value of this field to only contain the price… but it does not..

Eg… Woocommerce adds a price custom field to all products, the data as an example would look like this if you did a var_dump like we did for your site:

["_price"]=>
  array(1) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "10"
  }

This means the price was set to 10.

What WCK is doing is this:

["rosstest"]=>
  array(1) {
    [0]=>
    string(40) "a:1:{i:0;a:1:{s:8:"rosstest";s:2:"10";}}"
  }

Notice in the first example we have

string(1) "10"

And in the test field I made for your site:

string(40) "a:1:{i:0;a:1:{s:8:"rosstest";s:2:"10";}}"

It is storing a lot of extra information in the field, such as the name as well as the value (and it’s serialising the data) – this makes it unsearchable – you can’t even use WP_Query to create a query on the meta data generated by that plugin – I personally think this is a very bad implementation – but I guess they may have solutions for this in their docs.

In this case, I would recommend to use the Advanced Custom Fields plugin – I’ve used it many times, and it stores meta data cleanly and doesn’t stop it from being searchable – I’m sure there are plenty of others, it just seems like WCK is making life difficult!

Hope that makes sense.

Thanks
