Search in gallery on pictures

Hi!

Please add this in the functions.php file:

function attachment_search( $query ) {
    if ( $query->is_search ) {
       $query->set( 'post_type', array( 'post', 'attachment' ) );
       $query->set( 'post_status', array( 'publish', 'inherit' ) );
    }

   return $query;
}

add_filter( 'pre_get_posts', 'attachment_search' );

If you search for the title of the image, it will return the attachment page, not the page where you place the gallery. The solution is to add contents / keywords that is same as the title of the images.

Or use this plugin then enable the attachment post type:

Hi,

Hey!

Please copy the codes directly from the forum, not from your email. We added the code in the functions.php file. The attachment or image page should be searchable now.

Cheers!

Hey!

This is possible but you have to modify the search template. Example here:

Hi!

Please replace the line with the following code instead:

                $type = get_post_type($the_id);
		$searchthumb = $type == 'attachment' ? wp_get_attachment_image_src( $the_id ) : get_the_post_thumbnail_url( $the_id, 'large' );
                $searchthumb = $type == 'attachment' ? $searchthumb[0] : $searchthumb;
                echo "<span style='background: url({$searchthumb}); background-size: cover;' class='search-result-counter {$counterclass}'></span>";

Best regards,
