Urgent Search Issue

Hi

I Would like to know how i can get the search bar on my site to search within pages and also the grid video setup, please can you advise on a solution for this?

Thank you

Hi There,

By default, wordpress search function is working on the entire site. We didn’t change that on the theme. Now, with what you want to achieve, do you mean just limit search function to pages and grid video? If yes, we need to setup a child theme. Then add a function on your child theme functions.php file that will limit search. See this guide: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-limit-search-results-for-specific-post-types-in-wordpress/.

Hope this helps.

Hi

Is there a more simpler way of achieving this as i do not write any php ?

Please advise.

Thank you

Hi

We don’t want to limit the search we want the search to look up videos as per this link here.

Please advise how we can do this.

Thank you

Hey There,

Since you are not familiar with coding, simply make use of the 3rd party plugins to improve your search.
You may check out the WordPress plugins repository:
