    Hi,

    In my form, I have some drop down fields for custom meta data, and those work perfectly. However, I also added a Search input so they can type text. It doesn’t appear to be searching the post title?

    Thanks!

    Hey Josh

    The search input should search title and body content by default, are you saying this is not working?

    Do you have a link?

    Thanks

    Hey Josh

    I have a feeling you have something in your setup removing the search term from the S&F query.

    This could be a greedy WP filter on pre_get_posts or something like that.

    As a test, can you create a test form using a different display results method, eg shortcode method described here:

    And let me know if you experience the same issue.

    Thanks
