    Hello,

    I wonder if you can help me with the following: I have set up your excellent plug-in to show just one result but I would like the the search engine to open the post instead of displaying the result first (where one has to click to open the page).

    So, basically, search for (e.g) 123 – the search would then open the post called 123 and not just display the post as a search result.

    If you could help me with this I would be more than happy to send you a contribution via paypal!

    Hi,

    Please check if this code snippet works for you? Please add this in theme functions.php

    
function wp_es_redirect_search_results() {
    if (is_main_query() && is_search()) {
        global $wp_query;
        if (!empty($wp_query->posts) && count($wp_query->posts) == 1) {
            $post_url = get_permalink($wp_query->posts[0]->ID);
            if (!empty($post_url)) {
                wp_safe_redirect($post_url);
                exit();
            }
        }
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'wp_es_redirect_search_results' );

    Thanks

    Hi,

    Glad to know it works!
    It didn’t take my that much time and I won’t ask you to pay me for this custom work. ?? However, if you are happy with the product and support and want to buy me a coffee then here you go paypal.me/5um17

    Thank you very much! ??
