I'm trying to build auto-suggestive search results which make use of wildcard in the search term within the post_title and post_content; however it seems my code only works when I either do it for a post_title or post_content, but not for both together

function set_es_search_args( $ep_formatted_args, $args ) {
  if( isset( $args['autocomplete'] ) && $args['autocomplete'] ) {
    $ep_formatted_args['query'] = array("wildcard"=>array("post_title" => $args['s'], "post_content" => $args['s']));
  }
  return $ep_formatted_args;
}
add_filter( 'ep_formatted_args', 'set_es_search_args', 300, 2 );

Hey @diwakhat1603,

I am not sure 100% that it will work, but can you try to use query_string with multiple fields instead? Something like this:

$ep_formatted_args['query'] = array(
    "query_string" => array(
        "query" => $args['s'],
        "fields" => array( "post_title", "post_content" ),
    ),
);

Please, let me know if it helps.

Thanks, @eugene-manuilov for the help!
Now we're trying to do the same for taxonomies e.g. post_tag, category etc. as well

This is our code:
$ep_formatted_args['query'] = array(
"query_string" => array(
"query" => $args['s'],
"fields" => array("post_title", "post_content"),
'taxonomies' => array( 'post_tag' ),
),
);

The taxonomy is present in the indexes but it's not fetching the results, we'll really appreciate your help on this

Thanks,
Rahul

Now I'm trying to pull results for custom post_types, but isn't working out right (though we successfully tweaked the plugin's code to index custom post types and they are getting index now)

This is our code:
$es_query = new WP_Query( array(
'posts_per_page' => -1,
'ep_integrate' => true,
'autocomplete' => true,
'sites' => 'current',
's' => 'elast*',
'search_fields' => array(
'post_title',
'post_content',
//'post_excerpt',
//'taxonomies' => array('category'),
),
'post_status' => array('publish'),
'post_type' => array('post','photo-story','videos','collection'),
//'post_type' => 'any',
) );

We'll really appreciate your help on this and sorry for putting in more and more queries here :-)

Thanks,
Diwakar
