Can I change “Search…” to “Search Database…” in custom search shortcode?

    I love your search plugin. I am using the free version on a Twenty-Fourteen theme.

    I use the shortcode [searchform] on some pages which works well.

    I also use the shortcode similar to [searchform post_types=”database”].

    I want to distinguish the displayed search block for the above tool as follows.

    Instead of just “Search…”, I want:

    Search Site…
    OR
    Search Database…

    depending on which shortcode I use.

    Is this possible?

    Thank you for a great plugin.

    Something like this might work. Add this to your theme functions.php:

    add_filter( 'relevanssi_search_form', 'rlv_change_form_text' );
function rlv_change_form_text( $form ) {
    $site_or_database = 'Site';
    if ( strpos( $form, 'database' ) !== false ) {
        $site_or_database = 'Database';
    }
    $form = str_replace( 'Search...', "Search $site_or_database...", $form );
    return $form;
}
