WP Query include post title as 'Search' With two custom taxonomies

  • Hi Good day!

    I want to customize the search functionality of the website i am currently developing,

    I have a text field called ‘Search for: ‘

    and two dropdowns:

    1st dropdown: ‘Custom Taxonomy 1’

    2nd dropdown: ‘Custom Taxonomy 2’

    The user will enter his desired keywords and then chooses for the combination of custom taxonomy 1 terms ‘and’ custom taxonomy terms matching that keywords he entered.

    I’ve make sure i have pass my parameters correctly using $_GET;

    I want to use Worpdress WP Query in this, currently I have this code in my search.php

    <?php
$args = array(
'tax_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND',
array(
'taxonomy' => 'custom_taxonomy1', /** region **/
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => 'my-term1'
),
array(
'taxonomy'  => 'custom_taxonomy2',
'field'  => 'slug',
'terms'  =>  'my-term2'
)
),
'post_title' => $_GET['s']
);

$listing = new WP_Query( $args );

while ( $listing->have_posts() ) : $listing->the_post();
        /** The contents **/
endwhile;

?>

    and it seems to ignore my post title.

    Thanks.

    Never mid guys, I got it.

    <?php
$args = array(
'tax_query' => array(
'relation' => 'AND',
array(
'taxonomy' => 'custom_taxonomy1', /** region **/
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => 'my-term1'
),
array(
'taxonomy'  => 'custom_taxonomy2',
'field'  => 'slug',
'terms'  =>  'my-term2'
)
),
'post_title' => $_GET['s']
);

$listing = new WP_Query( $args );

while ( $listing->have_posts() ) : $listing->the_post();
        /** The contents **/
endwhile;

/** in functions.php **/

function additional_conditions ( $where ) {
	global $wpdb;

	$additional_condition = "MATCH ($wpdb->posts.post_title, $wpdb->posts.post_content) AGAINST ('Etobicoke')";
	return $where . ' AND 2=2 AND ' . $additional_condition;
}
add_filter( 'posts_where' , 'additional_conditions' );
?>

    2=2 is nothing but useless condition..
