Hello,
Is it possible to modify the K2 AJAX Search Module so that it only searches on the K2 Item title and not the entire item?

I've tried looking in the module code but cannot see any obvious place.

Thanks

Lee

Hello Lee,

We are not affiliated with this module.
Unfortunately I am not familiar with the module either.

I actually found the solution, open up:

plugins/k2ajaxsearch/k2ajaxsearch/k2ajaxsearch.php

Around line 100 and 125 is this code:

$wheres2 = array();
$wheres2[] = 'i.title LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.introtext LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.fulltext LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.extra_fields_search LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.image_caption LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.image_credits LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.video_caption LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.video_credits LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.metadesc LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.metakey LIKE '.$text;
$wheres2[] = 'i.created_by_alias LIKE '.$text;

Then comment out the lines you do not want the module to search through. Save and upload the modified file and then test your search.

Hope that helps.

Nice one Lee :)
