    Hi,

    I was wondering if there was any way where we can set Posts & Page results to show before Attachments? If I search a term sometimes I get the first page full of attachments when I know that there is a Post. I would like it to show Posts then Pages then Attachments.

    Hi @eangulus,

    Thanks for reaching out to sovrn support with your inquiry!

    You have the ability to change what kind of information populates in your searches within the Search Everything plugin settings. I would simply recommend removing ‘Search Every Attachment’ from your checked boxes within the Search Everything Basic Configuration section. This will allow your Posts & Page results to populate instead.

    If you have any further questions please do not hesitate to reach out to us directly at ea-support@sovrn.com.

    But that’s not what I want.

    I want the ability to have media in my search results. It is a photography site after all. And all my photos are tagged in such a way to return as results in searches.

    I simply want to find a way to set a weighting on what type of content gets what priority in the results. In my case I would want, Posts then Media then Pages.

    Hi @eangulus,

    The plugin was not built with any prioritization parameters regarding what populates after a search. This means that it automatically defaults to what is returned from WordPress’ database and weight cannot be placed on any specific form of content searched.

    This is a great enhancement request and one that our dev team is looking into as we build out and update our suite of plugins. As such, our most relevant solution may be an upcoming rollout.

    Please feel free to check back in for any new technological updates at any time and do not hesitate to follow up with any further questions.

    I figured that.

    I future feature would be awesome to be able to add weighting to different post/page types and media.
