   I have a search function on my WordPress site, and I've only just noticed that it doesn't seem to include my custom post-type's tags in the search. It is absolutely essential that my search includes tags when searching, so I wondered whether there is a simple solution here? I have looked on the net but can't seem to find a solution anywhere!

   Here's my html:

   <ul>
       <?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
       <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
       <li class="resultItem">
           <?php if (has_post_thumbnail( $post->ID )): ?>
               <?php $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ), 'full' ); ?>
               <a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/thumbs.php?src=<?php echo $image[0]; ?>&w=120&h=120&zc=1" alt="<?php the_title(); ?>" /></a>
           <?php endif; ?>
           <div id="resultText">
               <h2 class="redSubHeader"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" title="<?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
               <?php the_excerpt(); ?>
           </div>
       </li>
       <?php endwhile;?>
   </ul>

   And here's the php which makes my search only search within the 'event' custom post-type:

   // Only search for Events post-type in keyword search
   
   function SearchFilter($query) {
   if ($query->is_search) {
   $query->set('post_type', 'events');
   }
   return $query;
   }
   
   add_filter('pre_get_posts','SearchFilter');

   Thanks guys :)
