Severly lacking in features

  • I’ve been a long time user of this plugin. With the jump from version 2 to 3 the devs of this plugin severly cut down on features that the plugin formerly offered.

    In version two, the plugin made you build “search forms”. Here you would for example drag and drop and “text search” field and then decide what data should be searched, for example title, content and all taxonomies.

    Since version 3, when you create a text search field, you have three separate choices that you CANNOT COMBINE: you can text search in post attributes OR taxonomy (singular, not plural) OR Custom Field (again, ONE Field, not all fields).

    There is NO WAY to search post titles, content, taxonomy terms within the same search field.

    Imagine you have a shop for smarty pants, for which you have two taxonomies: color and size.
    With search and filter, with the text search, you can either let the user search for sizes OR for colors but NEVER BOTH.

    I am baffled how this is still considered a good plugin.

    Hi @pcarqueville

    I think there is some confusion. The only feature you listed that was available in v2 (pro) that is not available in v3 (pro) is the ability to output all the fields in one go as a “search form”.

    That is being added though as part of the process to migrate v2 users to v3.

    Of course v3 has countless new features that are not available in v2.

    If you’re having trouble adding these things in v3 to your site, please reach out to support:
