Include Downloads in WordPress search?

Hello

I have included the download item in the search.

I am using this extension that allows me to select the download items in the search. The problem is when the item is found and you click there is not single page to show them and gives 404 error.

I am trying to find if someone have done this before.

@simon: there currently is no way but I’ve added this as a feature request for a future version. You can check process on this feature here: https://github.com/download-monitor/download-monitor/issues/291

Hi barry

I solved this for my project with a javascript filter function:

But it would be great to have search results too in the future! Thanks!

I indeed didn’t think of the WordPress default search linking to download single pages and Download Monitor doesn’t have those. So to make a filter that would include downloads makes no sense because it would to non existing pages.

For now the only thing I can recommend is checking out the Page Addon extension: https://www.download-monitor.com/extensions/page-addon/
This addon adds an overview page with it’s own search feature and adds a custom single page per download with extra download information.
