@swissspaceboy Could you please provide some more information on the rule you disabled in WAF? We are having the same problem.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, this one works like a charm. No hits both in live search and results page.

Thanks for the great support!

Here you are:

The product with ID=28650 is in draft mode.

I enabled Error logging and I performed the same search. I got the following entries in the log file:
The first one is 9 hits in live ajax search and the second one is zero results in search results page.

id……query……………….hits

2…….SEARCHTERM…..9
3…….SEARCHTERM…..0

I already tried this in a logged-out environment. I just realized that when using your code snippet, the variations only show up in the search bar, as a drop-down list and when I press Enter, they are not present in the search results page https://www.domain.com/?s=SEARCHTERM&post_types=product%2Cproduct_variation&product_cat=0

I am afraid that the search results are the same, after using your code in functions.php. I also rebuilt the index through plugin settings.

Thanks for the prompt reply!

You are right, if I exclude Variations from indexing, the problem no longer exists. We really think that indexing them is a cool feature for our customers though, since they are instantly informed about the options they have when purchasing a product with e.g. volume options or sizes.

Is there any custom code we could use to fix this?

Thanks for the fix and the great plugin!
