    Hello,

    there is a compatibility issues with Relevanssi and the popular podcast-plugin Podlove (Podlove Publisher).

    The Podlove plugin creates a custom post type with the name “podcast” and generates it’s own feeds with the podcast episodes (like domainname.com/feed/mp3/ )

    With Relevanssi enabled, this feed does not have any items. If I disable Relevanssi, the feed is ok and has items.

    Enabeling or disabeling the search for taxonomie “podcast” in the setting does not change anything. The feed remains empty with no items, if Relevanssi is enabled.

    Hello,

    I looked around in the Relevanssi knowledge-base and found the following issue:
    https://www.relevanssi.com/knowledge-base/custom-post-type-filtering-produces-empty-results/

    So with trial and error I just put the second filter into the functions.php

    add_filter('relevanssi_search_ok', 'relevanssi_disable_filter');
function relevanssi_disable_filter($ok) {
    global $wp_query;
    if (empty($wp_query->query_vars['s']) || $wp_query->query_vars['s'] == " ") {
        return false;
    }
    else {
        return $ok;
    }
}

    With this code the items are shown in the podcast feed of Podlove.

    But, well, I have no idea what I really did or what other unwanted things this filter might cause. So far I haven’t noticed any other bugs coming up and even Relevanssi seems to work.

    Any comment, if this solution is a good solution would be helpful ??

    Sounds like a good move. Perhaps the Podlove feeds somehow include an empty search term, which causes Relevanssi to activate. This is a good solution.

    thank you for confirming this solution!
