Relevanssi can index attachment contents from files linked to posts with ACF File fields. This does not happen automatically but requires some extra code. The code required depends on which return value you use for your ACF File fields. If you use “File ID”, the code looks like this: For “File Array”, the code looks…

One way to deal with problem is to set Relevanssi to index “visible” custom fields and then restrict the indexed fields by field type. Add this function…

This problem happens when you set Relevanssi to index all visible custom fields and have Flexible Content fields. Let’s assume there’s a Flexible Content field with the name flexible_content.

For taxonomy terms, there’s the more complete solution that figures out the taxonomy from the field settings, but if the taxonomy is never going to change, you can skip all that and just set the taxonomy in……user display name and taxonomy term name, but you can get any post data based on the post ID, use any user data provided by get_userdata() and any term content provided by get_term(). Sometimes you have a flexible content field, which makes it impossible to use get_post_meta(), because you don’t……the post data by the relationship field. $relationships = get_post_meta( $post->ID, ‘relationship_field’, true ); if ( ! is_array( $relationships ) ) { $relationships = array( $relationships ); } foreach ( $relationships as $related_post ) { $content .= ‘ ‘ . get_the_title( $related_post ); } // Fetching the user data. $users…
