If you are following my WordPress related posts in this site, you should know by now that nearly a month back I wrote a post on How to Exclude Specific WordPress Pages from Search Results. This is the continuation of that post.
Today, in this post I will show you how to Exclude all the pages from WordPress search results. Trust me, this is way easier than the Previous one. If you could use the Previous code successfully, you should be done with this in less then 5 minutes.
All you have to do is to Copy and Paste the following code on your theme’s functions.php file. Update the page once you are done. Try to search certain page contents from your Search box. You should see it’s working like charm.
if ($query->is_search) {
$query->set('post_type', 'post'); }
return $query; }
add_filter('pre_get_posts','SearchFilter');
?>
Creating custom theme for your very own blog or Web site is not a whole lots of a big deal. But things might get really tricky at some point if you really don’t know what exactly you are dealing with.
At the beginning when I was developing e-dirt’s theme, I used the previous code to exclude certain pages from this site’s search result. Now, I am using this very little piece of code to Exclude all the pages which is lot easier to understand and to implement.
