    Hi,
    I tried to enter a search field that searches only in the new group of posts called pharmacies, but only the words present in the name of the pharmacy are found and not the additional fields created with pods. Is there any setting I can set to make it work?

    the link of the plugin is https://wordpress.org/plugins/pods/

    Our plugin does not directly allow you to do text searches of individual Post Meta (custom fields) and Taxonomy (Category, Tags and Taxonomies) data/terms. The Search & Filter Pro Text Search field uses the standard WordPress search, so looks only in the Post Title and Content. To help you control this better, on the form’s Advanced settings tab you will see 2 settings for Relevanssi.

    The documentation for this is here:

    You would need to install and activate the free Relevanssi plugin as well.

    Then set Relevanssi up and build its index (make sure it is indexing the desired post types, custom fields AND any taxonomy that you want to search).

    Thank you,
    so I have to package Relevanssi, together with your plugin, is that correct?

    Yes, it is a free plugin.

    I installed Relevanssi and added in the settings to search for my custom posts and also set to search in all custom fields but it doesn’t work… do you have suggestions?

    Did you build the index in Relevanssi after saving the settings? And also set our plugin to use Relevanssi?
