    Hi Dave,

    First… thank you so much for such a wonderful plugin. Second, please excuse my poor development capabilities. Here is my issue:

    I am using your plugin, and am having trouble with the search results. I am pulling in a meta-field, however the search is only reading the field value for the first result… then applying that value to all of the results below it.

    What the Results Look Like:

    Post Title One
    Meta-Field One

    Post Title Two
    Meta-Field One

    Post Title Three
    Meta-Field One

    What the results Should Look Like:

    Post Title One
    Meta-Field One

    Post Title Two
    Meta-Field Two

    Post Title Three
    Meta-Field Three

    Any help that you can provide here would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you,
    Brice

    To add to this, please see below for my code. Any help that someone could provide me here would be very much appreciated.

    daveswordpresslivesearchresults.php code:

    $meta_city = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), '_museum_city', true );
$result->post_city = $meta_city;

    daves-wordpress-live-search.js code:

    renderedResult += '<p>' + searchResult.post_city + '</p>';

    Okay, so I fixed this and wanted to update this post just in case someone else had a similar issue. The problem was with how I was getting the ID of the post, it was basically just pulling the ID of the first post only, instead of each result. I had to change “get_the_ID()” to “$result->ID”. Pretty silly how long it took me to realize that. At any rate, here’s the working code if you want to pull in other post-related info into the search results!

    daveswordpresslivesearchresults.php code:

    $meta_city = get_post_meta( $result->ID, '_museum_city', true );
$result->post_city = $meta_city;

    daves-wordpress-live-search.js code:

    renderedResult += '<p class="search_meta">' + searchResult.post_city + '</p>';

    Thanks for taking the time to explain how you solved your problem. I have an issue when trying to install you solution, I keep getting the undefined message no matter where I put

    $meta_city = get_post_meta( $result->ID, '_museum_city', true );
$result->post_city = $meta_city;

    Can you please go into more detail. Also I notice that the
    daves-wordpress-live-search.min.js file that actually changes and not the daves-wordpress-live-search.js file.

    Any advice appreciated. Thanks. I am using 3.2. Thanks Search can be seen here
