Awesome great to see you got that sorted.

Please advise if you have more questions.

Have a fantastic day!

Hi,

Is it possible to enable Ivory Search’s AJAX functionality to include BuddyPress activity content in the search results?

We’re currently using BuddyPress Global Search alongside Ivory Search. When a user presses enter after typing a query, the full search results page correctly displays activity content. However, the AJAX live search dropdown does not include any activity results.

I attempted to use the following snippet to include activity in the AJAX results, but it doesn’t seem to be working as expected:

// Add BuddyPress activity to Ajax search
add_filter( ‘bp_global_search_ajax_results’, ‘include_activity_in_ajax’, 10, 2 );
function include_activity_in_ajax( $results, $search_term ) {

// Safety check to ensure BuddyPress is active
if ( ! function_exists( ‘bp_has_activities’ ) ) {
return $results;
}

// Query BuddyPress activity content
if ( bp_has_activities( array(
‘search_terms’ => esc_attr( $search_term ),
‘per_page’ => 5
) ) ) {
while ( bp_activities() ) {
bp_the_activity();

$results[] = array(
‘title’ => wp_strip_all_tags( bp_get_activity_content_body() ),
‘url’ => bp_get_activity_thread_permalink(),
‘type’ => ‘activity’,
);
}
}

return $results;
}

@EmmanuelKen Currently, the Ivory Search plugin does not provide this functionality but I will consider implementing it in the future version of the plugin.

In the meantime, you can do this by developing a custom code.

If you are not a developer, you can consider hiring a developer to develop it. You can hire a developer from any freelance site or WordPress agency.

You can also consider hiring me to develop it for you using the form https://ivorysearch.com/custom-work/
