Restrict search to few product categories

Hi @stojanclover75

Here is the the code that will exclude categories from the search results:

add_filter( 'dgwt/wcas/search/product_cat/args', function ( $args ){
    $args['exclude'] = array( 999, 1000, 1001 ); // The ID of categories to exclude
    return $args;
} );

Here is a code that allows you to add extra score to selected categories:

// Add extra score to products that are assigned to the selected category
add_filter( 'dgwt/wcas/search_results/product/score', function( $score, $keyword, $product_id ) {
	$terms = array( 999, 1000, 1001 ); // The ID of categories to promote

	if ( $terms ) {
		foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
			if ( has_term( $term, 'product_cat', $product_id ) ) {
					$score += 100;
			}
		}
	}

	return $score;
}, 10, 3 );

Implementation:

1. Open the functions.php file in your child theme and add the code at the end
2. Or install the Code Snippets plugin and apply this code as a snippet.
