I wanna change the default behavior of wordpress search engine. Basically, I want to choose between 2 paths when the user informs a term on the search input:
- Find the posts or custom posts that have that informed term
- Or find the posts that belong to a taxonomy (or a custom taxonomy) that has a name like the informed term
So far, I'm trying to use the hook pre_get_posts but I don't know how to combine the 2 paths. I did try something like this:
function change_posts_per_page( $query ) {
$query->set(
'tax_query', array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'course-category',
'field' => 'name',
'terms' => get_query_var('s')
)
));
}
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'change_posts_per_page' );
It doesn't bring the posts with a taxonomy that has the name get_query_var('s'). Can someone help me?
