Ross.
Right now my search form is just a search box and a submit button. I want to have the form search some custom fields and custom taxonomies using only the search box, so no dropdown/checkbox/etc. Right now I have a function that puts all the content I want to search into post_content (since I don’t display that field on my site), but is there a better way to do this?
Hey there
The search box only searches titles & post_content, then you use the filters to refine the areas you are looking in.
I’ve been thinking on adding something like this in, but that would be a lot of work and I would probably have to set up caching of all your posts & pages to do this..
You could use a plugin like Relevanssi in conjunction with this plugin – this kind of plugin (which you probably know) powers the search box itself, and allows you to search taxonomy terms using only the search box (I’m not sure about custom fields)…
Hope that helps..!
