    Hi,
    It looks like the partial word search only works with prefix matching.
    For example, only searching for “Create” or “Create New” and so on.. returns a place on the title “Create New Topic in “GeoDirectory Core Plugin support”.
    Is there an option to enable wildcard on both front and back?

    HI Ryan,

    Can you explain more with live example on your site how it should return results?

    I have one listing “Restaurante Vegano” and it returns it results when searched with “Restaurante” or “Vegano”.

    I think the problem is found when a partial word is entered to search.
    For your example, “Restaurant” or “Vegano” will find a result. Also “Rest” will find a result, however if I search for “taurant”, it doesn’t find it.

    Hi Ryan,

    Please try PHP snippet provided at here to meet your requirement.

    https://wpgeodirectory.com/support/topic/mixed-japanese-language-search-working-in-content-but-not-in-title-tags/#post-515977

    That snippet also matches keyword for content, if you don’t want similar search in content then just use for title.
