Custom Taxonomy indexing

  • Hello,

    I am using a custom post type which is being indexed properly but I need Swiftype to search for keywords within my custom taxonomies as well (for example, I have a custom taxonomy called “Project Tags” which behaves similarly to normal tags but is only for tags on my custom post type “Project”). Is there a way to get Swiftype to index custom taxonomies? I’m seeing how to index custom fields but nothing about taxonomies that I can find.

    Thanks,
    John

  • I have the same exact problem on the project I’m working on now. I have a custom post type ‘members’ with two custom taxonomies – ‘specialties’, which is hierarchical, and ‘tags’, which is not.

    Unfortunately, the code offered here only works for standard categories, not custom taxonomies. I tried altering it by using get_terms, but I get errors even just trying to use it for standard categories.

    Waiting to hear back from Swiftype on a request I made to the linked article above.

    Great yeah I haven’t heard anything back since I posted so would love to hear what you find out.

    I heard back from Swiftype and they shared this gist., which has worked like a charm for me. Hope it helps you out!
