Pass Custom Fields to Results Page

[damikoParticipant]

Hi there,

Glad to see that you’re continually improving this plugin! Amazing the level of detail and thought that went it to this.

Anyways, quick question: I am trying to use a map page for my search results on a real estate theme. I have it passing the keyword without a problem with “listings/?keyword={phrase}”, but it doesn’t pass the custom fields and taxonomies over.

I need something like this: listings/?keyword={phrase}&min-price={MIN-PRICE-HERE}&max-price={MAX-PRICE-HERE}

Is this even possible?

Thanks!
Mike

Hi Mike,

Thank you very much for your kind words. Unfortunately at this moment this is not possible. Usually I suggest a modification or a custom code if possible, but in this case I can’t. Because the redirection and the URL of redirection is sent as an argument during the initialization process, it’s not possible to alter it afterwards.

I’m preparing a release of 4.11.7 later this week. One thing I can do is to perhaps implement first the custom field part to work as you described. So anything within the {} brackets that is not the {phrase} variable would be replaced with the custom field values. Taxonomy terms are a bit more complicated, but I will see what I can do about that.
I will try to push this feature into the next release, I have already placed it to the upcoming features list, it should not be too complicated, at least not the custom fields part.

Best,
Ernest Marcinko

Okay, thanks for the reply.

This is a feature that is somewhat urgent for my project. Is this something that perhaps I can pay you to do a custom script for my site?

Hi,

I’m very sorry, I cannot take custom requests, I barely have any free time now. For customizations/additions I usually recommend this site: wpkraken.io
If you want, you can ask them, they might be able to help you with this quickly.
