Hey again Cinthia

This may be because the data is serialised.

For a start, serialised data is very bad for searching, but should it still should be possible.. If you could use a taxonomy or different type of input would be better (and faster for searching).

If you cannot do this then lets try to solve the problem!

Can you tell me what the post type is you are searching, is it custom or built in?

Thanks
Ross

I am using the default post from the theme (Karo magazine theme). I will need to search inside posts that are events too (then made as type = events, by an event plugin ), but I did not test that yet.

I can try a different approach, but did not have an idea on how yet…As I said the other issue I had, I am not much familiar with wordpress ( or PHP ), although I am a programmer (.Net, using C#) and could achieve some code customizations.

The site itself is not online yet, I am testing on my local server, trying hard to solve all these litle problems so I can put it online.

Thank you for the fast response and the good work.

Could do it with custom taxonomies and some code adaptation. Thank you for the support.
