[Resolved] GeneratePress Pro Elementor Pro Relevanssi Highlight in Titles/Documents

[kv1953]

Hi Tom,
Apology in advance if I should be asking this question on Relevanssi or Elementor websites.

I have a customer whose current web developer has stopped supporting the website. I have used GeneratePress Pro Elementor Pro to re=create in WordPress. All seemed fine until using the search option. The original website http://www.irishsetterhealth.info/ does a much better job drilling down through the accordion pages and highlighting search words. My wordpress version uses Elementor Pro to create accordion content but when you search and shows page title. I have installed Relevanssi but it talks about modifying the “search result template” not sure if they mean search.php & if so which one ?
Highlights in titles require changes to the search results template. You need to “replace the_title()” in the search results template with “relevanssi_the_title()”. For more information, see the contextual help. I have searches these files and cannot find “replace the_title()”
As an example if i search for breed clubs in the original Drupal website it returns:-
Search results

Whilst wordpress site returns:-

Any advice would be gratefull

Hi there,

Yes, you’d need to copy the content.php file and add it to your child theme. Then rename it to content-search.php.

Then you can make any necessary changes, like switching out the_title().

The actual results returned is from WordPress, so Relevanssi shouldn’t have any issues implementing their functionality.

Thanks Tom

Just need to sort how to show an accordion that has search item in content but not in accordion title. ideally list by accordion title not page as http://www.irishsetterhealth.info/ original joomla website. I have emailed Relevanssi about this.

Hi Tom,

Relevanssi got back to me see below but beyond me what to do?

The original site has a different post structure and will produce different results because of that.

But I guess it is possible to have the correct part of the accordion open up. You’ll have the search terms in the “highlight” parameter. All it takes is a script that checks the search terms, then goes through the post and finds where the search terms appear and opens up those accordion items that have the keywords.

Relevanssi can’t do that for you, though, so you have to create the code yourself, but I’m pretty sure it can be done.

Sounds like that would require some javascript (although I can’t tell for sure). You may need to hire a developer to write that up for you, as it’s likely too complex for these forums.
