    Hello,

    Great plugin so far!

    When i type the name of a tag I have posts in, there are no results shown. The search only seems to be fetching results that have the keyword in the content of the posts. Can I enable tags to be searched in my results as well?

    Thanks

    If you are trying to search within ‘tags’ using the Text Search box, then our 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:

    https://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/3rd-party/relevanssi/

    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 AND the categories/tags/taxonomies/custom fields that you want to search).
