A quick test on a default install with TwentyEleven confirms this, and I’m not sure why this is the case, however there is a way you can do this via your functions.php. add a hidden field to the form with your own query var: <input type=”hidden” name=”my_type” value=”page” /> or: <input type=”hidden” name=”my_type” value=”post,page” /> … Read more
One of my favorite ways to do this is to use the Factious plugin. It is still fairly basic and only has a Sidebar widget by default. However, it has an extenable API(ish thing) that lets you write code to place it elsewhere. The reasons why I like it are this: Written by people who … Read more
Edited according to first comments and Pastebin code: <?php /* You can also leave ‘action’ blank: action=”” */ ?> <form method=”post” action=”<?php echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]; ?>”> <select name=”my_size” id=”size” class=”postform” onchange=”submit();”> <option selected=”selected”>Choose a size</option> <option value=”10″>10</option> <option value=”20″>20</option> </select> </form> <?php /* Reset filter */ ?> <p><a href=”https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/83928/<?php the_permalink(); ?>”>Clear filter</a></p> <?php if( !isset($_POST[‘my_size’]) || … Read more
I just made it for a client, you’ll have to do it on the pre_get_posts action. That means you will add parameters to the WordPress query before it returns the posts. Add this to functions.php: // advanced search functionality function advanced_search_query($query) { if($query->is_search()) { // category terms search. if (isset($_GET[‘category’]) && !empty($_GET[‘category’])) { $query->set(‘tax_query’, array(array( … Read more
The default Search widget uses the get_search_form() core function to display the search form. You can therefore edit the search form’s action <form role=”search” method=”get” class=”search-form” action=”http://domain2.com”> in the child theme’s searchform.php file. Here we assume domain2.com also supports the default WordPress search parameters. If we don’t want to modify the file, we can adjust … Read more
How about using the get_term function? If you look at the code the sql it uses is as follows: $_term = $wpdb->get_row( $wpdb->prepare( “SELECT t.*, tt.* FROM $wpdb->terms AS t INNER JOIN $wpdb->term_taxonomy AS tt ON t.term_id = tt.term_id WHERE tt.taxonomy = %s AND t.term_id = %d LIMIT 1”, $taxonomy, $term) ); which should be … Read more
The problem with your approach is that woocommerces product category is a custom taxonomy called product_cat. But with cat you are addressing the built-in category. Taxonomies can be addressed with a tax query, simplified example below: function wpse188669_pre_get_posts( $query ) { if ( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() && $query->is_search() ) { $query->set( ‘post_type’, array( ‘product’ … Read more
You can try a plugin to do this: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/smart-404/ Reads the page URL and tries to find a page/post that it might match and redirect to it. Found out about this plugin from: http://www.aebeta.com/web-hosting/seo/7-seo-friendly-404-plugin-for-wordpress.html
After reading your revised question it was easier to comprehend what you are trying to do. My new solution looks like the thing you wanted to do in the first place: it just excludes all posts which are of your custom type but don’t have the “yes”-term associated with it: $custom_query = array(); $custom_query[‘post_type’] = … Read more
Modify the searchform.php, or create one in a child theme (recommended), and you should be able to modify the form all you want. This is the file that get_search_form looks for and is the file used by the default search widget, though it is not listed in the Template Hierarchy.
