thanks i think that’s what made it work properly. I did change the name from spaced to one word.

as for archive – do you need it to be an archive, even for undated content? I’m still fuzzy on that.

Thanks agian.

Archive is not so the posts can be dated (all posts, always are) – but so there is an archive page that lists all those posts:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Types#Archive_page

I don’t think this is necessary to be enabled unless you choose the display method “Post Type Archive”.

Thanks

Hi Ross – is there a way to stop the Previous and Next from appearing on details?

It doesn’t seem to get the “next match” more like the next post chronologically. Seems the same way on your demo site.

Hello J,

I have been going though much of the same issues. For what it is worth, what I ended up doing is creating one test Search for each individual function until it worked correctly, then I combined them one-by-one. What I discovered is that the Plugin was fine but my sample posts were not complete enough to make everything world well. Also, by doing it this way, I found that I did not follow Russ’s document 100%. More importantly, it is easier to troubleshoot and ask for specific help when needed.

On another note: you asked on my post (here) how I got the theme to have different sidebars. First, site I posted was my client’s competition and not the one I wrote. However, we do have unique sidebars by way of the Widget Wrangler plugin. That said, if all you want are custom or unique sidebars there are far easier plugins. Widget Wrangler is a large animal. I would advise against trying it until you get this issue resolved. WW adds a lot of other variables.

Good luck.

Hi J

What do you mean when you say

is there a way to stop the Previous and Next from appearing on details?

Do you mean when you click down into a result?

Thanks

Ross,

yes – when you are viewing the detail, there’s a Next Movie / Previous Movie link. But they aren’t related to the next search hit – just the next movie in the total population.

This is really then upto the theme.

The pagination is added on (I think) post.php or single.php (at least in the WP themes) and is your themes way of traversing through your posts. Its really got nothing to do with S&F and would always behave like this.

I think it takes the order of your post type archive, or blog – which I guess is chronological.

Its does seem like a nice idea though to stick on the roadmap of features to add to the plugin – something which carries the ordering down to the individual pages.

Hope that helps.

Thanks
