   Hi, I have a site with two Post Types, each have their own search boxes which filter search results to a specific post type.

   On my search.php page, I'd like to be able to extract which Post Type my results are filtered to.

   How can I do this?

   The URL of my search results looks like this:

   http://www.domain.com/?s=mysearchtext&post_type=mypostype

   Any help would be really appreciated.

   I've solved this one myself by searching for similar answers.

   I came across this thread:

   http://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-with-is_post_type-perhaps-it-is-a-bug?replies=25

   Where the answer lies in:

   <?php
   	$post_type = get_post_type( $post );
   	if ( $post_type == 'posttype1' ) { ?>
   	<p>The Post Type is Type 1!</p>
   <?php } else if ( $post_type == 'posttype2' ) { ?>
   	<p>The Post Type is Type 2!</p>
   <?php } ?>
