Exact result

[spunk91Participant]

I have a recipe website, and want people to type in the ingredients they have available, and then only show them recipes with those key ingredients.

ex. 1:

User types in “veal” – search result only returns with recipes with the category “veal” selected

So posts with the category “veal” + “potato” selected doesn’t show

ex. 2:

user types in “veal” + “potato” – search result only returns with recipes with the category “veal” and/or “potato” selected

So posts with the category “veal” + “potato” + “corn” selected doesn’t show

How would this be done?

Hi,

I don’t think this is doable to be honest. Searching for one exact word is okay, however it does not predicate that other categories would not match.
It might be easier with a taxonomy term checkbox filter + changing the matching logic like so: https://i.imgur.com/7TwOcCY.png

I know i’m asking about competing plugins. But do you know of any other plugin where this would be possible?
Or would i have to have it custom made?

Hi,

I am not sure about the compteting ones, I would say that probably not. Custom made is probably your best bet in this case, as this requirement is very specific.
