Only search in title and ACF

Hi @cnsjw,

Thank you for your message.

I have understood that you would like to skip the value of post_content and post_excerpt from searching, yes?

Yes, you got me right

Currently, there was no such possibility. I have released update 3.4.3, which adds the new acfbs_search_post_object_fields filter.

Use it according to the formula to limit the used fields of the post object:

function acfbs_post_fields( $fields ) {
  $fields = ['post_title'];
  return $fields;
}
add_filter( 'acfbs_search_post_object_fields', 'acfbs_post_fields', 10, 1 );

Download the latest version, add this code to your page and tell me if it works?

I’ve tried the code and it works like a charm.
Thanks very much.

I found another problem:

at this page:
https://www.dipont.com/category/vacancies/

When I search “teacher” the results will show up, and when I search a place which which is an ACF field like “Nanjing”, the results will show up.

But if I search “teacher” and “Nanjing”, nothing came up.

Note what types of fields the plugin considers. What types is the Nanjing field?

It is a Select

Can you send me your plugin configuration? As a screenshot.

Sure, here is the screenshot:

I need to search in this Location field

I would also like to edit the post page you want to find. The whole page in admin panel.

Actually there are many posts meet the search parameters, contains “Teacher” in title and “Nanjing” in ACF field.

I checked the search and it works fine:

The post has been found.

Yes, only search “teacher” or only search “Nanjing” are both work.
But when search Teacher + Nanjing, nothing came up.
