    Hello,
    I am using Searach and filter plugin on my website.
    I have created Custom fields type Date using ACF, and i created a search form and added my custom fields using post meta. But on the website it always giving me results not found although the conditions are all good and i have posts that match the selection.

    I want to mention that this problem is only about custom fields, because i tried with categories and it is working.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Thank you

    Trevor

    Check the names of the meta keys for the ACF fields. Make sure that they do NOT start with _ (the real key will be lower down the list).

    If you are searching using the text box, you will need to use the free Relevanssi plugin as well. See here.

    Thank you for your response,

    It’s was about the “_” in the meta keys.

    Now it’s working, thank you so much.
