Search based on another database field (stored by Oxygen PageBuilder)

Make Relevanssi index the ct_builder_shortcodes custom field in the indexing settings, and you should be fine.

Dear Mikko, thank you for your help. Basically the search works now. But I would like to show not only the title of the respective search results, but also a small excerpt (preferably around the search term). Similar to function “the_excerpt”.
Do you have any advice?

Thank you!!! Nora

Yes: use the_excerpt(). If you have enabled custom excerpts from Relevanssi settings, the_excerpt() will display those.

Thanks for your wonderful plugin Mikko.
Wanted to let you know that adding the_excerpt() wont work (anymore), can you please check?
I also tried: <?php the_excerpt(); ?> (in a code block).
Please see my search results template:

Oxygen support says: If you’re not happy with the text that it is retrieving, I would suggest reaching out the developers of Relevanssi to ask how you change what it returns.

First: please start a new thread for your problem, it’s much easier that way.

Second, if the_excerpt() doesn’t work, I can’t help much – that’s the official and correct way to display Relevanssi excerpts, and if nothing else is interfering and Relevanssi settings are correct, it will work.

I can’t help with Oxygen, because Oxygen is so wildly different from regular WordPress, and I have no access to it, so I don’t know what it is doing. I have no way of figuring out what that [oxygen data="excerpt"] means, it could be anything as far as I can tell.

Thanks for you super fast answer Mikko! Yes settings are fine. Here I show you: https://share.getcloudapp.com/E0uryR7Q.
Ok I will ask Oxygen again if they want Relevanssi to be a plugin their users can use. If they do, hopefully they will try to make it compatible. But before I do that, are you sure there’s no fix possible like these ones? https://www.relevanssi.com/knowledge-base/compatibility-avada-theme/ or https://www.relevanssi.com/knowledge-base/profile-builder-pro-compatibility/?

Sure, a fix is possible. I just don’t know what the fix would be, as I don’t know what Oxygen is doing. It’s a mystery to me, I’ve never seen what goes on inside it, and thus I can’t provide a fix. Someone probably can, it may need to be the Oxygen authors.

Ok clear. I will ask them again.
I thought my question matched perfectly with the last response in this excisting topic but you are right, I should have started a new topic indeed.
I will get back to this, maybe I am going to ask you later on if you could login and try to find out what is goes on inside oxygen..

Hello Mikko,

Oxygen offers to send you a copy of the Oxygen Builder, do you want to receive it?
If you do, it’s not going to be easy I think, because, as you already mentioned yourself more or less: Oxygen don’t use the content area so the_excerpt won’t work because the excerpt is built from the WordPress content area. This is what Oxygen told me, so they recognize it.

Regards,
Paul

Yes, that’d be fine. I can be contacted at mikko at relevanssi.com.

Oxygen not using the content area is not a problem, Relevanssi has filters for that.

That sounds awesome. I forwarded your mailadres to Oxygen support.
Really appreciate your effort (and a mayor part of the Oxygen community with me I believe).
Regards,
Paul

Hello Mikko,

Did you receive their mail at the 28th of october with a discount code so you can get a free copy of Oxygen?

Did you have a chance to take a look yet?

Regards,
Paul

Yes, Oxygen support was added to Relevanssi couple of versions ago.

That’s awesome Mikko, thank you much!
