    Hello. I am hoping this is a relatively simple fix

    I am using Index Search. I am using WordPress File Download which I can add into the index, and have run the indexing.

    However when I search for specific files, weirdly they show up in the suggestions but not in the search itself (image 1)- and the custom post type for the downloads is in the search’s box (image 2)

    Also, the width of the results box isn’t quite as big as the search box, is there a field for this?

    Hi!

    Indeed, there was something wrong with the search there, but I managed to resolve it.

    This was actually a tough issue to debug, but I found that the regular engine was working with that post type. I had to do a few tests on the plugin source on our local server to find out the cause. It turns out, that wpfd does actually change the mime type of the wpfd_file custom post type, however the index table engine did not expect that, as it is usually only used on the media attachments. The resolution was very simple, I just added the pdf and html mime types to the index list: https://i.imgur.com/TbEC0nB.png
    And that’s it, the post type fields are now correctly indexed, and you should see them in the results.

    Best,
