Suggested terms Cleaning

    Hi,

    I had a company develop my real estate website a few years ago and was looking into making some improvements. I’ve just noticed that my search suggested terms are incorrect.

    I’ve corrected them (I think) but they still display wrongly. I was thinking this might have something to do with the terms being stored somewhere (not in cache).

    I’ve been navigating the files and have come up with cmb-search.php file and others which indicates CMB2 was used in the development. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to flush the terms on the auto complete field.

    TY

    Hi @jojogali

    Regrettably, I have to say that it’s impossible for us to know for sure at all with this, as we do not have any knowledge of how everything here was implemented. It’s possible that it’s cache, perhaps even a transient, but it also could be all data coming in directly from the database as well. Really depends on what is going on in cmb-search.php and how it’s compiling the list of items to suggest. I have a hunch that it’s AJAX based, but can’t confirm. Would you be willing to share the cmb-search.php file? Perhaps we can determine something from that.

    Hi, I understand my explanation is limited but so is my knowledge in terms of programming, unfortunately. I know enough to make some very basic tasks and search for certain actions.

    But I’ll be more than willing to share the file. Since it’s pretty lengthy, please download it here: https://www.filedropper.com/cmb-search-imoveis

    Thank you

    Can you let me know which field is tied to this functionality? For example, I’m seeing a “Search imoveis list” that looks like it may be the source. It’s pulling content from both meta data as well as taxonomies.

    I am not sure. The smart search on the HOME page uses FWP for the field filtering.. But maybe? What could I do if that was the case?

    I am guessing “FWP” here is FacetWP. They may have their own caching going on, if that’s where the issue is coming from. If it’s only an issue in the options page, then it looks like it’s using straight WP_Query, which is a WordPress core item. That would be pulling data right from the database itself. The two spots I recall seeing would be post meta and terms.
