    Hi guys,

    What would be involved in me making the search show all (I have 2 quote related) custom post types. Have searched the forums and can’t find. If I can achieve this I can then hide search_by_post with CSS… but if not, hiding search_by_post would need to be shown as the person wouldn’t know what CPT they are including/not including

    Thanks!

    That is not quite possible currently. For performance, the main map and the search will only do one CPT at the time.

    Oh that’s a pity… has there been a workaround suggested on the forums that I can’t find?

    What would i need to do…. I would like to only include ONE CPT on the map on the homepage… but all CPT’s in my search.

    Tell ya what… wonder would it work if I could have the drop down list of CPT’s at the end of the search instead of at the start… just that some of my users in UAT phase so far have been confused as to what it mean… their words not mine!

    My 2 CPT are “Childcare Adverts” and “Childcare Jobs”
