Including a custom post type element in search results

[timburkart]

Hello!

I just added the code below to my child theme's functions.php and I guess it works because it does return the CPT text I was looking for. However my search results no longer include the excerpt text that it did before. What did I do to remove that?

Also, I would like to know how I can modify my CPT snippet to return 2 CPT data items, each on a separate line.

Thank you!

add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'modify_search_results' );

function modify_search_results( $query ) {

	if ( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() && $query->is_search() ) {
        add_filter( 'the_content', 'custom_field_content' );
    }
    return $query;
}

function custom_field_content( $content ) {

    $field = '<p class="source-type">' . genesis_get_custom_field( 'source_type' ) . '</p>';

	$output = genesis_get_custom_field( 'source_type' ) ? $field : $content;

	return $output;

}

You replaced the $content with the custom field rather than adding the field to the content.

What you might want to try is this:

$output = $content . "<br>" . genesis_get_custom_field( 'source_type' ) ? $field : $content;
