ThemeCo themes use custom codes for dynamic content. Those are not usual shortcodes, and Relevanssi won’t expand them automatically. In order to expand the dynamic content from ThemeCo themes, you need to use these filters: The critical part is running these filters on an early enough priority for relevanssi_post_content: Relevanssi page builder shortcode cleanup runs…
Martfury is a WooCommerce theme that comes with a built-in dropdown search. That’s great, except that as usual the dropdown search doesn’t work with Relevanssi. Fortunately the search is hooked into place, so it’s possible to hook it out and replace it with something new. That might not be necessary, though. The theme developer has…
Elementor is a popular page builder. It works rather well with Relevanssi. Elementor page editor searches are broken Enabling Relevanssi in the WP admin breaks some Elementor editor searches, like the search for templates. This will be fixed in the next version of Relevanssi, meanwhile you can fix the problem by disabling Relevanssi in the…
Total is a popular theme from WPExplorer. It mostly works fine with Relevanssi, with just one little issue. Total sets the post_type parameter for all searches to include all public post types. This is fine for most cases, but if you want to include user profiles or taxonomy terms in the search results, Total will…
Posts and pages on the product search results The Flatsome theme, when combined with WooCommerce, has a product search results page that can also show posts and pages. That doesn’t work with Relevanssi out of the box, but fortunately can be made to work. The function that adds the functionality is hooked in place, so…
BeTheme does the strangest, weirdest, and least productive things with search I’ve ever seen in a professional theme. It can automatically clear out your search term, which of course leads to Relevanssi searches failing. I have no idea what that is trying to achieve, but it makes searching very frustrating. Fortunately the fix is simple.…
Divi and Relevanssi Premium Divi has included a Relevanssi compatibility module from version 4.7 onwards. However, that compatibility module only looks for the free version of Relevanssi and does not activate on Relevanssi Premium. Fortunately fixing this problem is straightforward and only requires one line of code: This filter function will tell Divi to use…
In some cases Relevanssi requires modifications to search result template for the search results to work properly (in particular when using Relevanssi Premium to search user profiles and taxonomy terms). Adjusting the templates is really simple, usually just changing the_permalink() to echo relevanssi_get_permalink() is enough, but framework themes like Genesis make small changes like these…
Avada is the one of the most popular WordPress themes on the market. All post types are not found If your Avada search is not showing all post types, attachments or user profiles, the problem is probably in the Avada settings. Avada has settings for search and that includes a list of post types to…
Modernize is a neat Premium theme that has a problem with Relevanssi. Relevanssi highlighting can cause problems on Modernize search results pages, with results getting wrong background color. This problem is caused by the way Modernize truncates excerpts to certain length, set in the Modernize settings. It doesn’t care about HTML tags, so Modernize may…
