    I get the following error thrown when enabling the meta search feature:

    WordPress-Datenbank-Fehler:?[Not unique table/alias: 'bsq_meta']
    SELECT DISTINCT (MATCH(wp_posts.post_title) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 10 ) + (MATCH(wp_posts.post_content) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 1 ) as score FROM wp_posts LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta AS bsq_meta ON (wp_posts.ID = bsq_meta.post_id) LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta AS bsq_meta ON (wp_posts.ID = bsq_meta.post_id) WHERE 1=1 AND ( wp_posts.post_date <= '2024-07-16 15:35:56' ) AND ((MATCH(wp_posts.post_title) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 10 ) + (MATCH(wp_posts.post_content) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 1 ) OR ( ((wp_posts.post_excerpt LIKE '%opera%') OR (bsq_meta.meta_value LIKE '%opera%')) ) ) AND (wp_posts.post_password = '') AND wp_posts.post_type IN ('post', 'page', 'video') AND ((wp_posts.post_status = 'publish' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'inherit')) ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 0,1

    this error gets displayed two times on the search page, then this error appears:

    WordPress-Datenbank-Fehler:?[Not unique table/alias: ‘bsq_meta’]
    SELECT SQL_CALC_FOUND_ROWS DISTINCT wp_posts.*,wp_posts.ID as ID, (MATCH(wp_posts.post_title) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 10 ) + (MATCH(wp_posts.post_content) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 1 ) as score,wp_posts.ID as ID, (MATCH(wp_posts.post_title) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 10 ) + (MATCH(wp_posts.post_content) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 1 ) as score FROM wp_posts LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta AS bsq_meta ON (wp_posts.ID = bsq_meta.post_id) LEFT JOIN wp_postmeta AS bsq_meta ON (wp_posts.ID = bsq_meta.post_id) WHERE 1=1 AND ( wp_posts.post_date <= '2024-07-16 15:35:56' ) AND ((MATCH(wp_posts.post_title) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 10 ) + (MATCH(wp_posts.post_content) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 1 ) OR ( ((wp_posts.post_excerpt LIKE '%opera%') OR (bsq_meta.meta_value LIKE '%opera%')) ) ) AND (wp_posts.post_password = '') AND wp_posts.post_type IN ('post', 'page', 'video') AND ((wp_posts.post_status = 'publish' OR wp_posts.post_status = 'inherit')) ORDER BY (MATCH(wp_posts.post_title) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 10 ) + (MATCH(wp_posts.post_content) AGAINST ('opera' ) * 1 ) DESC LIMIT 0, 10

    I can see what the error is but unsure why this is coming through. Are you able to give me screenshots of the settings page? You can upload these on imgbb if needed. There is something that is causing the left join twice which I am not sure why.

    Hi Ajay,

    here you go:

    The Site is using Elementor for the styling of the search results which works fine when meta fields are not enabled.

    Thanks!

    I just tried to simulate this with your settings – with “Search meta” enabled and disabled but can’t get the error.

    I assume you’re getting this error only when you have search meta enabled?

    One thing to check is if you install Query Monitor, it should throw up an error as you have above and in there it gives you the call stack. Wondering if that will help us trace where this came from albeit unlikely as it is a few WordPress filters that cause this to happen.

    Do you have a list of plugins you are using? Wondering if there is clash there. I’m not sure if this could be an elementor issue. I checked the free version and I don’t think that allows me to change the search template.

    Hi,

    i did some digging on my own, looks like the error comes from the the aliases beeing included two times. The plugin has two ways of registering filters and hooks, the file class-better-search.php on line 125 triggers the hooks() method if seamless mode is true and if we are in a main query. Looks like Elementor triggers this to be true for some reason. I commented out line 125 and im getting the search results now.

    Edit: I saw that this option was the seamless integration option on the first settings page. I deactivated this and now it works without any code mods. ??

    Thank you for the detailed debugging. Unfortunately, I can’t yet test with pro elementor, however what you’ve done makes sense to me. Are the outputs as you expect them with seamless disabled?
