Hello
I have the following Post Type/Taxonomy setup:
Post type: “Grants”
– Custom Taxonomy: “Person”
– Custom Taxonomy: “Program”
— Taxonomy term for this example “Youth Service Improvement Grants”
Post Type: “People”The “Person” taxonomy creates a relationship between the custom post type “People”– the “Person” terms correspond one to one (they share the same slug) with a “People” post.
What I want to do is *exclude* certain People posts from displaying in the search filter pro results page. The logic for exclusion is:
If a Person tax term is only used on Grants with the “Program” taxonomy term called “Youth Service Improvement Grants” then find the corresponding “People” post and **exclude** that post from the search filter pro results page.
I’ve tried doing this via the WordPress pre_get_posts hook, but it is not working. After adding this code I try rebuilding the index cache via the Search Filter admin panel and refreshing the front-end.
How can I exclude certain posts from being indexed?
Pre get posts:
add_action('pre_get_posts', 'exclude_people', 10); function exclude_people($query){ if(!is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() && $query->is_search) : $posts_to_exclude = array(); $args = array( 'posts_per_page' => -1, 'post_type' => 'grants', 'tax_query' => array( array( 'taxonomy' => 'program', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => array('youth-service-improvement-grants'), ), ), ); $myposts = get_posts( $args ); foreach ( $myposts as $post ) : setup_postdata( $post ); $tags = get_the_terms($post->ID, 'person'); if(!empty($tags)) { foreach($tags as $tag) { $tag_slug = $tag->slug; $tag_terms = array($tag_slug); $args = array( 'posts_per_page' => -1, 'post_type' => 'grants', 'tax_query' => array( 'relation' => 'AND', array( 'taxonomy' => 'person', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => $tag_terms ), array( 'taxonomy' => 'program', 'field' => 'slug', 'terms' => array('youth-service-improvement-grants'), 'operator' => 'NOT IN' ), ) ); $my_person_posts = get_posts( $args ); if(count($my_person_posts) < 1) { $myperson = get_page_by_path( $tag_slug, OBJECT, 'people' ); if(!empty($myperson)) { $posts_to_exclude[] = $myperson->ID; } } } } endforeach; wp_reset_postdata(); $query->set('exact', true); $query->set('post__not_in', $posts_to_exclude); endif; }
