My products are songbooks. Each songbook has a list of songs, and I would like the search to be able to consider the songs.
How can I direct the search to scan custom data?
Hello
It depends how the data is stored. Please read this - https://products-filter.com/extencion/woocommerce-filter-by-meta-fields
Thanks. That helped. I had to also make a code adjustment in filter\ext\quick_search\js\quick_search.js.
I change it from:
return element.title +":" + element.key_words + element.sku;
to
return element.title +":" + element.key_words + element.sku + element.meta_data.songs_list;
It is working they way I wanted it to now. But is there a way to make this work without adjusting the code?
Or is there a child folder option that I can utilize so my changes to get overwritten when updates are released?
Hello
You can override the JS function where you changed the code.
In the child theme, create a JS file with the new function (use the same name) and just include the new JS file after the filter JS file
