This can be done in multiple ways But the easiest will be the following code. The key is the GET method that will allow us to inject what you want. You can try: <div class=”search-box”> <div class=”container”> <div class=”columns”> <form method=”get” class=”nt-search-form” action=”<?php echo home_url(); ?>”> <input type=”text” id=”search-text” class=”input-text” name=”s” placeholder=”<?php _e(‘Search …’, ‘customsearch’);?>” … Read more
With Slam’s kind tip to use query-monitor plugin, I could figure out what the problem was. Apparently the url /search/foo/filter/bar also fits the “general search” rewrite-rule. Makes sense, thinking about it– (.+) technically matches /foo/filter/bar aswell. So I could improve (.+) by excluding /s? But I found an easier solution! In hope “first match wins” … Read more
Exists the template product-searchform.php, you have to override it in your theme. More information here about how to override WooCommerce templates from your theme. Basically the WooCommerce search forms returns only products and not also other post types because the product post type is specified in an hidden input: <input type=”hidden” name=”post_type” value=”product” />
The problem is here: if( get_post_type()==’page’ || is_single() ){ echo ‘<h1 class=”h2″>’. $post->post_title .'</h1>’; } get_post_type() is using the global $post, which will contain the first post in your result set. If this is a page, then your other conditions will never be tested and you’ll never reach the is_search() test. Use is_page() instead: if( … Read more

You can check it on my test site: … Read more
register_post_type() has a argument that you can set to specify which post types you want searched, thus excluded the undesired ones. This is the simplest method, just one line: ‘exclude_from_search’ = true, Alternative to that, you can hook into the search query itself via pre_get_posts and then modify the search, specifying which post types you’re … Read more
The post date isn’t meta. You only orderby meta_value if the value is a custom field stored in the wp_postmeta table. The publication date is in the wp_posts table and part of the core post data. If you want to order by date you set orderby to date, and don’t set any of the meta_ … Read more

This will create a meta value on save that stores the length of the post title. function save_crosses_title_length( $post_id ) { $title = get_the_title($post_id);//get the title $length = strlen( $title );// get the length of title if ( get_post_meta( $post_id, ‘name_length_crosses’ ) ) {//if meta … Read more
