Hello,

I have found a way to search specific words and not partial words in my main search bar on my template, but when I use this code (in my theme’s function.php) your search tool doesn’t work. Can I incorporate your code to work with the following?

add_filter( ‘posts_search’, ‘my_search_is_perfect’, 20, 2 );
function my_search_is_perfect( $search, $wp_query ) {
global $wpdb;

if ( empty( $search ) )
return $search;

$q = $wp_query->query_vars;
$n = !empty( $q[‘exact’] ) ? ” : ‘%’;

$search = $searchand = ”;

foreach ( (array) $q[‘search_terms’] as $term ) {
$term = esc_sql( like_escape( $term ) );

$search .= “{$searchand}($wpdb->posts.post_title REGEXP ‘[[:<:]]{$term}[[:>:]]’) OR ($wpdb->posts.post_content REGEXP ‘[[:<:]]{$term}[[:>:]]’)”;

$searchand = ‘ AND ‘;
}

if ( ! empty( $search ) ) {
$search = ” AND ({$search}) “;
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() )
$search .= ” AND ($wpdb->posts.post_password = ”) “;
}

return $search;
}
