Removing filter and pages in search results

    I have seamless integration turned on and I’ve noticed that the random posts widget that I use on the blog is being populated with the results from searches, matching it exactly. If the results of a search are Post A, Post B and Post C the random posts widget displays Post A, Post B and Post C. I’ve added

    remove_filter( 'posts_where' , 'bsearch_where_clause' );

    to the end of better-search.php and that seems to fix the problem. However by adding that line of code some searches now include pages in the results even though I have them excluded in settings.

    I’m using version 1.3.6 of Better Search.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Instead of your code above, could you please try this on line 959 and line 979

    if ( $wp_query->is_search && $wp_query->is_main_query() && $bsearch_settings['seamless'] && !is_admin() ) {

    I added a new clause for is_main_query() which might work by only affecting the main search results.

    Thanks for the reply Ajay. I changed both lines 959 and 979 but search results still effect the random posts widget. I’ve also installed a different random posts plugin but the results are the same. Random posts match search results.

    Which random posts plugins are you using?
    I’ll try to test them on my installations and see what happens.

    Appreciate all your help Ajay. At the moment I’m using Random Posts with Thumbnails and I’ve also installed Flexible Posts Widget.

    Hi,

    I tried using Random Posts with Thumbnails and seems there is a bug. Still investigating.

    Hi,

    v2.0.0 should fix this bug where queries were being overwritten incorrectly.
