I have a Custom Post type defined in one site i am doing as follows:
$labels = array(
'name' => 'Clients',
'singular_name' => 'Client',
'add_new' => 'Add New',
'all_items' => 'All Items',
'add_new_item' => 'Add New',
'edit_item' => 'Edit Item',
'new_item' => 'Add New',
'view_item' => 'View Item',
'search_item' => 'Search Item',
'not_found' => 'Item Not Found',
'not_found_in_trash' => 'Item Not Found',
'parent_item_color' => 'Parent Item'
);
$args = array(
'labels' => $labels,
'public' => true,
'show_ui' => true,
'has_archive' => true,
'publicly_queryable' => true,
'query_var' => true,
'rewrite' => true,
'capability_type' => 'post',
'hierarchical' => false,
'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'revisions'),
'taxonomies' => array('category', 'post_tag'),
'menu_position' => 20,
'exclude_from_search' => false,
'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-admin-users'
);
register_post_type('clients', $args);
My problem is that when I try to search my posts in the clients section in the admin panel (not a search form, but the wordpress admin panel) the results shown are from the regular posts, not the clients custom post type. Obviously I need the results for the clients. I am missing an argument here or something? Or this is something you should do with a filter? I am a bit lost here, I have to accept it.
