## Descripción

Extending WordPress Search block with search results modifier fields.

#### What problem does it solve?

❓ _Do you want to narrow search results to a specific post type only?_
 ❓ _Do 
you want to narrow search results to a specific category/tag/taxonomy term only?_

**Extend Search Block** plugin provides additional search results modification fields
solving these issues!

In _**Search** block_ settings sidebar simply choose which post type should the 
search form look for. You can also choose a taxonomy and a dropdown with the taxonomy
terms will be displayed in the search form on your website front-end to further 
narrow down the search results.

_(Note that this plugin only alters WordPress **Search** block, not the PHP [`get\_search\_form()` function](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_search_form/).)_

## Instalación

 1. Unzip the plugin download file and upload `extend-search-block` folder into the`/
    wp-content/plugins/` directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the _"Plugins"_ menu in WordPress.
 3. Plugin works immediately after activation by adding new settings options to WordPress
    native _**Search** block_ in block editor.

## FAQ

### How does it work?

 1. Insert _**Search** block_ into your page/post content (or into Site Editor).
 2. In the block settings sidebar open the **"Search modifiers"** panel.
 3. Tweak the settings to your needs. Note that resulting modifications only affect
    front-end of the search form, so you will not be able to preview them in editor.
 4. Save your content and preview changes applied to search from on your website front-
    end.

I really needed a way to create a search block for a knowledge base custom post 
type using the full site editor. The thing is, the default search didn’t have a 
way to force it to only use the knowledge base, and instead searched everything.
I didn’t want that. This plugin allowed me to configure the search bar to only search
for things in the knowledge base, which was exactly what I needed. I have a minor
suggestion, but it wasn’t a big deal for me – it would be nice if the block used
core’s button block instead of the button it uses. I think this would align better
with the theme’s design, and probably give more options on what the search button
looks like. A minor suggestion though, since the customization options were flexible
enough that I was able to make the button match my theme without much trouble. Great
job, and thank you so much!
