search doesnt find custom fields. Please help!
Its been more than one week. I am getting really upset with this.
I have tried every available plugin which claims to search by custom field, none works.
Classipress default search boxes not working with custom fields.
PRACTICAL EXAMPLE:
I have several custom fields (cp_city, cp_state, etc). As you all know these are the classipress default custom fields and cannot be changed.
When I do a search for something contained in the meta cp_city or cp_state (default or created by me) it returns 'no results'.
Why aren't these fields included in the search results? Please note, that to our website, it is VITAL for the user to be able to search within these custom fields.
I am talking about the top search, not the refine results search (which, by the way, is not working either).
Can anyone in this forum help me? Fixing the code or any other alternative?
My webdesigner has a limited knowledge of php and although he has been trying everything solution he has found, it is still not working.
Thank you in advance for your help
