Thank you. Interesting. We don’t have anything changed in our wp-config.php so not sure what happened there. Will keep an eye on it.

Hi Mikko,

I decided to undo all the work I did since nothing seemed to help my situation substantially. Then I tested some hooks individually.

Right now, I am using only the add_filter( 'relevanssi_block_one_letter_searches', '__return_false' ); hook filter and nothing else… and somehow everything is working as it should now! Little confusing but happy it’s working now.

I can search for “workbook lesson 2” and “lesson 2” and I get only one search result that shows lesson 2.

Thank you for all the help!!

Hi Mikko,

Thank you for explaining why it’s not a good search term. It makes sense now ??

I checked the “Keyword matching” setting on the Searching tab of Relevanssi settings, and it’s already been set to “Whole words” for this whole time. Should I still try out the new version of the lib/search.php file?

Thank you!

Thanks, Mikko! I’ll take a look and open another topic if needed. ????

Hi Mikko,

I have the same issue with chapter titles that contain a single digit, like “Workbook Lesson 2” for example.

I’ve added the this filter to my child theme functions.php file:
add_filter(‘relevanssi_block_one_letter_searches’, ‘__return_false’);

I’ve also overwritten the relevanssi/lib/common.php file using the code you provided in the link above (https://github.com/msaari/relevanssi/blob/master/lib/common.php).

However, searching for “Workbook Lesson 2” brings up almost 2 whole pages of search results before showing the actual Workbook Lesson 2 page in the search results. I’d like this to show up as the first result. Sounds like the information you gave above is supposed to allow for this, but I cannot confirm this to work on my end.

Alrighty, then! Thank you so much again, Jeff. Really appreciate your super fast feedback. I think that answers my questions!

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the super fast reply!

1) Hah, thanks for setting me straight there. I don’t know what I was thinking; I got confused. You’re right, you do say that people that cannot use an .htaccess firewall, should use BBQ!

Since we do use an .htaccess firewall (through BulletProof Security Pro), do you think we need BBQ as well?

It does sound like BBQ does something different from BulletProof Security Pro, and could potentially add security to our sites.

2) Thank you for that. I did just see in your FAQ mention “And yes, there is benefit to using BBQ with any other security plugin, including Wordfence. They protect against different threats, so using both means you are extra secure.” That makes me think, it is possible that it’s adding security to our site besides what BulletProof Security Pro is doing.

3) How exactly does BBQ do what it does—if it doesn’t add code to the .htaccess file… how does it operate? I’m so curious now!

Thank you again!!

Thanks! That’s helpful!

Wow, well, just to double-check something, I just looked at the source code of the pages that didn’t show up in the search results and I found this:

<meta property="article:section" content="Uncategorized" />

I have no idea how that go into the code, but this goes along with your suspicion! So weird!

Hi Mikko,

Thank you so much! It doesn’t seem to be that they’re “Uncategorized” posts… all of those links are actually Pages on the site, not Posts. I looked through everything on the pages and nothing seems to be pointing to them being uncategorized in any way.

I wasn’t sure what else to do, so I made 4 new pages with the same content/setup as the 4 mentioned in my original post. Then made the original pages into Drafts and published the 4 new pages. They all now show up in the search results. No idea what happened there…

Thank you so much for hanging in there with me and helping me troubleshoot this. Seems like this issue was beyond Relevannsi—possibly some kind of database issue, not sure.

Thank you so much, Mikko.

Here’s a screenshot of the page in phpMyAdmin.

Here’s an SQL dump of the whole thing.

Does that show you anything?

Hi Mikko,

Thank you! It seems that the taxonomy ID 1 is for “category”. See screenshot.

I tried to run the MySQL query directly in the database, but I’m not sure exactly how to do that. Do you have instructions for this? I Googled around a bit but I think I’m a bit too unfamiliar with working inside databases.

Thank you so much!

Hi Mikko,

Thank you! I tried those two things. I’ve uploaded the results here (for “misperception” in quotes) and here (for misperception without quotes).

See anything?

Hi Mikko,

Thank you. I searched the wp_relevanssi database table for the 4 different pages that aren’t working. I’ve dumped the results which you can look at here.

I’ve dumped the results for the following page/post IDs (scroll through the above linked page to see all the results):
250
255
259
270

Those 4 are the ones that don’t work. For comparison, I’ve dumped the results for post ID 6419 as well, which is a page for which the Relevanssi search works just fine.

Can you see anything unusual?

Thank you!

That’s so great. Thank you, Mikko.

I’ve added the new lib/common.php to my site and the search is working as it should again ??

I’m glad you’ll implement this in the next update! Appreciate the support and upkeep of this plugin!
