Any ideas on how to do this?
Your input would be greatly appreciated.

I have created the path but WordPress does not read the files. A child theme only reads the PHP files, from what I understand, which is why I am trying to deregister the files in the parent theme and register them in their new location in the child theme.

I use a caching plugin and Autoptimize already.

With FontForge you can delete icons and I believe add them as well. However, you would likely need to edit the CSS or Javascript files to add references to the new icons.

You could possibly get away with replacing one icon with one of the new ones and using the old reference name to embed it into your site.
For example, replacing the envelope icon with a house icon, but still using the fas fa-envelope reference. It could get very confusing.

Here is the path to the webfonts folder where the FontAwesome icons are stored.
customizr/assets/shared/fa/webfonts

I opened the .woff2 files using FontForge and selected “compact” as the encoding. I then deleted any icon that I was not using on my site and saved the file. I then converted those modified .woff2 files into the other font formats.

If you have any ideas for improving the loading speed, I would be happy to hear your ideas!

I was looking through the code and it doesn’t appear that the date function is completely implemented in tables. I am working to see how that can be implemented and will send some suggestions to the plugin creator.

I have this code that should work for you. However, it does not change the titles of the table since that is hardcoded into the $headers variable of the PHP file. I’m seeing if there is a way to change that without editing the PHP. One way is to adjust the CSS on the page but that could be a little complicated if you aren’t super familiar with coding.

[MMFileList folder=music format="table" orderby=date]<td><a href="{url}">{name}</a></td><td>({date})</td>[/MMFileList]

Make sure to put this in the shortcode block if you are using the new Gutenberg WordPress layout. If you don’t, it won’t work properly.

Thank you very much!!
Everything is working as it should now.

So after adding in various filters to test the functionality of Relevanssi, it seemed like everything was configured correct. After some additional debugging, I found that the plugin “Give”, after the latest update, is blocking or breaking the excerpt functionality of the plugin. Disabling that fixed the problem.

Now, for one final question….
I added two filters, as previously mentioned, to organize the excerpt in a list fashion and remove the file size label. However, occasionally I get a <\> or \> symbol in the excerpt and sometimes the text “file size”.

How can I remove that code that is being inserted into the excerpt and remove the table headers from the excerpt? The “name” and “file size” text comes from the headers on the tables where the download links are organized.

For example, if the term “link” is searched for, the results page generates this:

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past File Size The Legend of Zelda A Link to the Past – Credits 
The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures File Size The Legend of Zelda Four Swords Adventures… (Search hits: 3 on page)

The results are not in the list format and the text “File Size” is visible.

I am using the Customizr theme and it should be using the_excerpt() to print out the page excerpts. The theme has not been modified so that functionality should not have changed, unless updates to WordPress changed the way the excerpt function works. It was orginally working back when the plugin was first installed.

Is there a way to test if the_excerpt() is being used?

Furthermore, I noticed that the “Breakdown of search results” feature is not working either.
The box “Show the breakdown of search hits in the excerpts” is checked and the breakdown format is defined as:

(Search hits: %body% on page)

The “Use custom field content for building excerpts” option is checked and in the indexing tab, the option “Custom Fields” is set to all.

Nothing has changed in the theme. The only updates are new versions of WordPress.

You are amazing! That works perfectly and the format is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much!

I will definitely be leaving a review of Relevanssi.

The issue was not with the plugin but the way that the WordPress Search feature was processing the shortcode. After modifying the search parameters, the files were being found in search results.
