How to exclude GP searching pages

Hi there,

We will need this filter:
https://docs.generatepress.com/article/generate_navigation_search_output/

Do you only want to search for posts?

Let me know :)

Hi Leo,

Yes I just want to search for posts not pages.

Thanks!

Try this PHP snippet:

add_filter( 'generate_navigation_search_output', function() {
    printf(  
        '<form method="get" class="search-form navigation-search" action="%1$s">
            <input type="search" class="search-field" value="%2$s" name="s" title="%3$s" />
            <input type="hidden" name="post_type" value="post" />
        </form>', 
        esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ), 
        esc_attr( get_search_query() ),   
        esc_attr_x( 'Search', 'label', 'generatepress' ) 
    ); 
} );

Hello Leo,

I´ve just put the code but it´s not working.

I´ve tried in the live version so I´ve updated this post website URL.

If you search for example the word "tour" it will show the tour page and that´s a page not a post.

Thanks a lot.

I'm not seeing the navigation search in the URL provided.

Can you double check?

Let me know :)

Hello Leo,

I´ve just updated the url so you can see the search box.

Thanks a lot.

Hi there,

It doesn't look like you're using the Navigation Search.

Are you wanting to target the search bar in your right sidebar?

Hi Tom,

Oh yes the search bar in the sidebar. Actually I thought it was the same.

What should I do?

Thanks a lot.

That's a WordPress search widget which is different than GP's navigation search:

Hi Leo,

Understood. That worked like charm.

Thanks a lot for the help to all of you and have a good day.

No problem :)
