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/
Trevor(Private) November 4, 2020 at 1:15 pm #265273Our 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).
