Only show blog posts on search result page
-
Hi, I work on a website for my client. I want the search results to only search for blog posts. Now, it searches for pags, products and blog posts… Here is the site https://velbehagklinikk.no/blogg/ I want to fix. I have trid to use the searxh exclude plugin, but my client have 300 products, so I don`t want to use so much time to exclude every product manually. Is there a better way to just only show blog posts?

Hi there,
You should be able to use either a plugin or a custom PHP filter to restrict search results to only the Post content type.
If you’re already using a Search plugin on the site, I recommend you contact support for that plugin directly to make sure if they have a setting for that.
You can also consider Jetpack Search – that adds Jetpack’s search feature to your site instead of the built-in WordPress search feature, and Jetpack Search comes with a number of filters already built in:
Just note that while the Jetpack plugin is free, the Search feature is a paid service.
Otherwise, you can try asking in the WordPress.org forums for help with a custom PHP snippet to add a filter like this to the built-in search:
