Just done a test on a clean WP install and found that it does exclude uncategorized pages (pages that haven’t been assigned any category), which I thought it had done in previous tests of mine.

Therefore I can only assume that maybe the replacement code to search all custom fields also overrirdes the exclusion of uncategorized posts in the Exclude categories part of Ajax Lite.

Is there a way to fix this or better still get my custom fields selectable (as to previous post ‘Field Keys’?

Thanks

Another way to look at this would be whether it possible to run a search on a section of the website. Stipulate searching only child pages of a parent page?

Is this possible?

Hello

That worked!

However, what I’m trying to achieve is an FAQ section with a url tree structure e.g. /faq/landing-page/post-name
/faq/landing-page2/post-name

Therefore, I am using Pages for this. The only problem I have now is that although I’ve added categories to FAQ pages, I’d have to go through every page and select Uncategorized as currently it doesn’t seem to want to exclude these “uncategorized” page..unless you can advise otherwise? Perhaps ‘uncategorized’ fields have an ID number I can exclude by? I have excluded the two uncategorized categories that are listed and added category 1 in the Exclude Posts by ID’s (comma separated post ID-s).

I also found under screen options in the custom fields the ‘Field Keys’ you referred to and therefore I can see the field I want search has a field key of field_570242e6e91d2. This does not show up in the list of Available Public Custom Fields Types, so would be good to know what they do not? As if we can could add them in we could use your code without amendments.

Really appreciate your quick response and help you’ve given so far.

Yes. If you search any word from the content, the plugin does not find it. I’ve selected all Available public custom fields types and placed them into the Drag here the custom fields you want to use section.

With Relevanssi there is an option to select all custom types and that came up with results, which shows the fields are searchable.

Does this link work for you?

Hi

I’m having a similar problem with custom fields.

Every page is made up of modules form custom fields.

In the Ajax Lite, I have for example, _basicmodules under the ‘Available public custom fields types’. So I’ve tried move all to ‘Drag here the custom fields you want to use!’. But still the content is not coming up in searches, only words form the page title.

I’m working on a test sever so the search is not on live.

What I’m trying to get to is searching only the FAQ pages (I’ve added categories to these pages and made all the pages thus far categorised as FAQ).

Your help will be much appreciated as it will be exactly what I need.

Thanks
