Search is limiting the posts to the current language.Need to query all languages

I’m guessing Polylang is adding a language filter somewhere in the process. If you uncheck the option in Relevanssi settings, Relevanssi certainly doesn’t filter anything. You can check what’s inside $wp_query->query_vars in the search results template: do you see anything that could restrict the search to the current language?

Hi Mikko,
You are right, there is a language parameter in query_vars : language [65] => es

add_filter('relevanssi_modify_wp_query', 'rlv_remove_language');
function rlv_remove_language($query) {
    $query->query_vars['language'] = '';
    return $query;
}

That might solve the problem.

Hi Mikko,
Thank you for the reply.
I was also thinking on the similar lines and tried to clear the language variable.
But seems like it is being reset to the current language somewhere else.

Added the above function and still there is no difference in the search results.

In that case Polylang is doing some additional filtering. Relevanssi doesn’t recognise the language parameter in the first place, so it shouldn’t make any difference.

You might want to ask Polylang support about this. Perhaps the filtering can be disabled somehow.

I tried getting help from Polylang support but no luck.

I also tried to give all languages array to the language parameter, expecting it to return results from all languages. It still doesn’t work.

Thanks for your support Mikko.
