Custom post type in Search and Author Archive and Date Archive

Hello,
I’m just testing that plugin. And..
1) my custom post type’s top is shown in the search results. Is your custom post type querable?
publicly_queryable (checked)
Whether post_type queries can be performed from the front end.
Default: value of public argument.
exclude_from_search (unchecked)
Whether to exclude posts with this post type from search results.
Default: value of the opposite of the public argument.

2) To show cpt in post lists you might want to add this to your child-theme functions.php:
add_filter('tc_include_cpt_in_archives', '__return_true');

Should work.

Hi Friend,

Thanks for your prompt response.

I have a setting as you want but still i am not able to get mu custom posts in search result.
I also want to display my custom posts with regular posts in latest posts and in archive.

Please help me on this.

Can you try the step 2?

I tried it but could not get any solution.
I am able to see my custom post in category and in tags (taxonomy allowed in custom post), but not able to see in archive and in search.

After adding this line
add_filter(‘tc_include_cpt_in_archives’, ‘__return_true’);

In archive, i am getting each and every thing for example, pages, categories addition etc.

I just want to add my custom post type, not pages.

Thanks.

mm, weird , works here once I add that line in my child-theme functions.php

What’s the content of your child-theme functions.php?

<?php
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );
function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’, array(‘parent-style’)
);
}

//Add search box
// As of 3.1.10, Customizr doesn’t output an html5 form.
add_theme_support( ‘html5’, array( ‘search-form’ ) );

add_filter(‘wp_nav_menu_items’, ‘add_search_form_to_menu’, 10, 2);
function add_search_form_to_menu($items, $args) {

// If this isn’t the main navbar menu, do nothing
if( !($args->theme_location == ‘main’) )
return $items;

// On main menu: put styling around search and append it to the menu items
return $items . ‘<li class=”my-nav-menu-search”>’ . get_search_form(false) . ”;
}

?>

Displaying custom posts in archive is working but its also displaying all taxonomies and created pages with posts. Also search functionality is not working, even I have all set as you suggested.

In search result also, custom posts are not coming.

Ah I see.
About the search I don’t know works fine here :/
About displaying taxes and pages when using that code, yeah is something wrong. Must be fixed.
But with taxonomies you mean custom taxonomies?

Hi Friend,

Thanks for your help. It was my bad. I have used Relavansi for search and I forgot to include my custom post type there.

But the archive problem is still there. Here is some more detail:

1. When i click on date link of custom post type, its giving me page not found error.

2. Custom post type is not displaying in author and month archive.

Please help me on these points.

Try using this:

add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'include_cpt_in_archives', 100);
function include_cpt_in_archives( $query ){
  if (
        is_admin()
        || ! $query->is_main_query()
        || ! ( $query->is_search || $query->is_archive )
    )
    return;

  $post_types = get_post_types( array('public'=> true, 'exclude_from_search'=> false, '_builtin' => false) );
  // add normal post
  $post_types['post'] = 'post';

  $query -> set('post_type', $post_types);
}

’cause 1 and 2 are about the same problem.

Let me know

Hi Friend,
Great support thanks. Its working fine now.

You are hero of the day for me.

Just one more question related to this topic, can i also add the count of custom post in archive and get them in list of that month on clicking on the month name.

Hi Friend, Sorry for this. After adding the above code, I am getting all custom posts in my archive lists also.

Thanks for your support.

I also added below line to show the count in month archive.

add_filter( ‘getarchives_where’, ‘custom_getarchives_where’ );
function custom_getarchives_where( $where ){
$where = str_replace( “post_type = ‘post'”, “post_type IN ( ‘post’, ‘post-type-mypost’ )”, $where );
return $where;
}

I am closing this topic as resolved.
