    Hi,

    I’m assuming the articles and companies are different custom post types?
    In this case you are looking for results grouping by post type: https://i.imgur.com/iuB4zfw.png

    If they are the same post type, but in a different category, then grouping by category is the way to go: https://i.imgur.com/YO8mHsE.png

    Hi,

    Thank you for the details, I have found the problem. The mixed results ordering was activated, which appears to have caused a yet unknown bug. I’ve turned that option off, as it’s not needed for grouping, and it fixed the problem 🙂

    Hi,

    The companies are displaying first, if there are company results for the actual search query within the limit.

    If you want to prioritize some results over others, you can use the priorities function as well: https://goo.gl/4Z7xbj

    I will try to explain why it’s working like that:
    The limit for post types is set to 10. When searching for “FD” it returns over 10 more relevant results for the articles than the companies so those are displayed. The limit applies to all post types in overall, not separately, as they are stored in the same database table. The more relevant items are displayed first, regardless of the post type. (the results count is not distributed evenly by post type, it’s not possible by a single query)

    I’ve noted this as a possible feature in the next release, as it would be very useful. Of course I will have to investigate first how a solution would affect the overall performance.
