Product Search – Can the tab content be searchable?

    I’ve hunted through the forums but haven’t seen if the plugin is able to search content within the extra product tabs.

    I’m currently using Elementor on a site, I’ve installed the plugin, and I’m using the “product search” option, but it doesn’t seem to want to pick up content in the tabs.

    Is there a functions.php setting to include that area for searches?

    As a side note, I’m using the following that does work, but wanted to check if there was anything inherent that maybe I was missing.

    Here’s code to join fields and search custom fields (not my code, just something I’ve used before): https://adambalee.com/search-wordpress-by-custom-fields-without-a-plugin/

    @bigredseo,

    You should reach out to the developers and let me know you’d like to include custom post meta into your product search functionality. Since you’re using a third party search theres no telling what they’re using under the good to provide that search data to you.

    I hope you get it figured out and if not maybe try looking at other search plugins instead of using the one built into Elementor.

    Hi,

    Same problem I have.
    We’re using Custom product tabs to display additional tabs in our Woocommerce site.
    However, our customers need to be able to search alphanumberic “Part #” like:
    BL-4510
    BL-4520
    BL-4530

    These were added using the custom tabs.
    Is there a way to make the texts visible in search?

    Thanks.
