Limit searches using post_parent__in

What’s the code that you use with post_parent__in ?

It’s a bit more difficult to do with the plugin this way.

You can add a function using add_filter on bsearch_posts_where

This would need to detect the post of the parent and pass that ID.

See some examples of filter functions at: https://gist.github.com/ajaydsouza/767215093a24bafb903a

Hi Ajay,

Thanks for you reply.

I need to only query posts from a specific array of parents. This is how my normal WP query looks like:

$post_ids = array( 14,46,67 );
$query->set( ‘post_parent__in’, $post_ids );
$query->set( ‘post_status’, ‘publish’ );

I had a look at the filters which are very handy but still can’t figure out how to get around setting up what I need ??

Where are you putting this code and is that the complete code or more of it?

You could potentially replace $post_ids with this code to get the search results.

$search_query = get_bsearch_query();
$matches = get_bsearch_matches( $search_query, 0 );		// Fetch the search results for the search term stored in $search_query
$searches = $matches[0];		// 0 index contains the search results always
if ( $searches ) {
	$post_ids = wp_list_pluck( $searches, 'ID' );
}
