Customize design/appearence of both search form and results

The filter cannot, from a single post page, detect what that posts’ taxonomy is and thus create the lists that you want. It is unlikely you could use a form to do this, as, in the main, the form requires a fixed or known results page. This should change in V3 (due in a few months), but I am unsure whether it could even then detect the taxonomy of a post on a single post page.

Hi,

it seems, by default the search box only searches through headlines. Is it possible that it searches in specific fields (I created with advanced custom fields)? Thanks.

Yes it is. 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:

https://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/3rd-party/relevanssi/

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).

Great help. Thanks. Another question:

I created multiple choice fields with ACF. The choices are displayed as text in a template. They are comma separated, but I would like them to be a list with bullets. How can I acomplish that? Thanks!
