How to amend wordpress search so it queries taxono

问题:

I want to amend the search so if say I have taxonomy called "author" and add a term of "Ian Rankin" to a post, if I search for "Ian Rankin", I want that post to come up. I guess at the moment it only searches titles and content. How can I make it search terms too?

You can alter the search query using filter hooks to join the taxonomy tables.

e.g. to also search on the 'author' taxonomy

First join the taxonomy tables

function tax_search_join( $join )
{
  global $wpdb;
  if( is_search() )
  {
    $join .= "
        INNER JOIN
          {$wpdb->term_relationships} ON {$wpdb->posts}.ID = {$wpdb->term_relationships}.object_id
        INNER JOIN
          {$wpdb->term_taxonomy} ON {$wpdb->term_taxonomy}.term_taxonomy_id = {$wpdb->term_relationships}.term_taxonomy_id
        INNER JOIN
          {$wpdb->terms} ON {$wpdb->terms}.term_id = {$wpdb->term_taxonomy}.term_id
      ";
  }
  return $join;
}
add_filter('posts_join', 'tax_search_join');

then find the search term in the taxonomy 'author'

function tax_search_where( $where )
{
  global $wpdb;
  if( is_search() )
  {
    // add the search term to the query
    $where .= " OR
    (
      {$wpdb->term_taxonomy}.taxonomy LIKE 'author'
      AND
      {$wpdb->terms}.name LIKE ('%".$wpdb->escape( get_query_var('s') )."%')
    ) ";
  }
  return $where;
}
add_filter('posts_where', 'tax_search_where');

and finally group the results by post id to avoid duplicate results because of the join

function tax_search_groupby( $groupby )
{
  global $wpdb;
  if( is_search() )
  {
    $groupby = "{$wpdb->posts}.ID";
  }
  return $groupby;
}
add_filter('posts_groupby', 'tax_search_groupby');

It could also be done by using MySQL's EXISTS function with a subquery that joins term_relationships with terms. I have created the following snippet and put it into functions.php:

// Search titles and tags
function and_extend_search( $search, &$wp_query ) {

    global $wpdb;

    if ( empty( $search ))
        return $search;

    $terms = $wp_query->query_vars[ 's' ];
    $exploded = explode( ' ', $terms );
    if( $exploded === FALSE || count( $exploded ) == 0 )
        $exploded = array( 0 => $terms );

    $search = '';

    foreach( $exploded as $tag ) {
        $search .= " AND (
            ($wpdb->posts.post_title LIKE '%$tag%')

            OR EXISTS
            (
                SELECT 
                    *
                FROM 
                    $wpdb->term_relationships 
                LEFT JOIN 
                    $wpdb->terms 
                ON 
                    $wpdb->term_relationships.term_taxonomy_id = $wpdb->terms.term_id
                WHERE
                        $wpdb->terms.name LIKE '%$tag%'
                    AND
                        $wpdb->term_relationships.object_id = $wpdb->posts.ID
            )
        )";
    }

    return $search;
}
add_filter('posts_search', 'and_extend_search', 500, 2);
