WpPhotoSeller – searching with more than one keyword

[victoo]

Is it possible to search images using more than one keyword? When I’m searching using “keyword#1” I got results, when using “Keyword#2” I got results but when I use “Keyword#1, Keyword#2” or “Keyword#1 Keyword#2” no results. Of course photo has both keywords.

Hi victoo,

Currently the photo search capability is effective yet simple in the sense that it will search for a single word or phrase of words if they appear in exactly the order entered. For example, let’s say one of your photos has a description of: “Sunset in the desert – Grand Canyon”.

If you searched for “grand canyon” the plugin will find that photo. If however you searched for “sunset desert” it won’t.

As you may appreciate, adding the ability to do more complex searches introduces more complexity to the coding too.

We will investigate to see if we can implement something like what you are talking about in a future update.

So I keep my fingers croosed that You manage to add that feature into yours great plugin.

IMHO that is quite important, specially if you have big gallery quite similar images, for example landscape photography.
