Search results should include instrucror name

[kaugurs]

Hi, Is it possible to include an instructors name to the TOP SEARCH BOX results? At the moment the search returns only course title results. Thanks!

Yes, you can search courses by instructor name. Please enable the setting 'Navigation search as course search' to do this please go to wp-admin -> WPLMS-> Header  http://prntscr.com/j0mdeu Also add thge following php code in wplms-customizer plugin -> wplms-customizer.php file. Code: add_filter( 'posts_search', 'db_filter_authors_search' ); function db_filter_authors_search( $posts_search ) { // Don't modify the query at all if we're not on the search template // or if the LIKE is empty if ( !is_search() || empty( $posts_search ) ) return $posts_search; global $wpdb; // Get all of the users of the blog and see if the search query matches either // the display name or the user login add_filter( 'pre_user_query', 'db_filter_user_query' ); $search = sanitize_text_field( get_query_var( 's' ) ); $args = array( 'count_total' => false, 'search' => sprintf( '*%s*', $search ), 'search_fields' => array( 'display_name', 'user_login', ), 'fields' => 'ID', ); $matching_users = get_users( $args ); remove_filter( 'pre_user_query', 'db_filter_user_query' ); // Don't modify the query if there aren't any matching users if ( empty( $matching_users ) ) return $posts_search; // Take a slightly different approach than core where we want all of the posts from these authors $posts_search = str_replace( ')))', ")) OR ( {$wpdb->posts}.post_author IN (" . implode( ',', array_map( 'absint', $matching_users ) ) . ")))", $posts_search ); return $posts_search; }
