    Hello,

    Currently I do not find in the WordPress search engine, results from “Connections”. I have the same problem regardless of the template used.

    Do you have a recommendation to solve this problem? Should I use a premium module to solve this problem?

    A directory without an efficient search engine is, as we say in France, “as a meal without cheese” ??

    Thanks

    Best regards.

    It is not possible to integrate with the core WordPress search because it is highly optimized for only searching WP pages/posts or Custom Post Types (CPT) if they are registered for search.

    Connections does not use CPT for its data because the db schema for CPT’s are optimized for post like data only. Connections uses a db schema optimized for directory content for performance and scalability. You’ll find that much larger plugins such as WooCommerce and Easy Digital Downloads have moved or are moving away from using CPT’s because using them are too inefficient for the custom data schema’s they require.

    If you want search, you need one of the premium templates. If you want to have a search input on your home page, use the Search Widget which comes as part of the Widget Pack. You can place this widget in your theme’s sidebar so it shows up everywhere.

    Hope that helps!
