Turn off / Ignore Results per page setting

Hello,

I would like to use my own code for displaying number of results but it seems I can’t disable “Results per page” option in S&F. Is there any way to ignore this setting?

Regards

Unfortunately not, but you could modify the query using this filter

http://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/action-filter-reference/#Edit_Query_Arguments

And add in your own value.

Thanks

Can you please explain more. I have this code now but the number of results don’t change

<?php function results_map_filter( $results_map_args, $sfid ) {
if($sfid==1530) {
$results_map_args = array(
‘post_type’ => ‘posttype’,
‘posts_per_page’ => -1,
‘post_status’ => ‘publish’,
‘cache_results’ => true,
‘no_found_rows’ => true
);
}
return $results_map_args;
}
add_filter( ‘sf_edit_query_args’, ‘results_map_filter’, 10, 2 );
$results_map = get_posts( $results_map_args );
if (have_posts() ) :
?>

I have no idea if your code is roughly correct, but it is not semantically correct.

It would look like this to be correct from a PHP point of view, I think:

<?php
function results_map_filter( $results_map_args, $sfid ) {
  if($sfid==1530) {
    $results_map = get_posts( $results_map_args );
    if (have_posts() ) {
      $results_map_args = array(
        'post_type' => 'posttype',
        'posts_per_page' => -1,
        'post_status' => 'publish',
        'cache_results' => true,
        'no_found_rows' => true
      );
    }
    return $results_map_args;
  }
add_filter( 'sf_edit_query_args', 'results_map_filter', 10, 2 );
?>

You would use this in your child theme functions.php file, which should already have the opening PHP tag <?php, so you wouldn’t need that from the code, and it is NOT normal to close the PHP tags ?> at the end of the functions.php file as this can cause a site to crash.

I could well be wrong with the code though.

There shouldn’t be a custom query inside the filter itself, the filter is used to modify the arguments before they get passed to a query – the code should look like:

function results_map_filter( $query_args, $sfid ) {
	
	//if search form ID = 1530, the do something with this query
	if($sfid==1530)
	{
		//modify $query_args here before returning it
		$query_args['posts_per_page'] = -1;
	}
	
	return $query_args;
}
add_filter( 'sf_edit_query_args', 'results_map_filter', 10, 20 );

Thanks

Thank you Ross. Must I call then this function in my template (where…before loop)? Cheers

Just seen this – sorry for the delay – this should go in your functions.php file
