 * On this page of my site – [http://thecardist.net/videos/](http://thecardist.net/videos/)
 * I have a lot of videos and would like to add ‘Search’ functionality to the top
   of this page but I only want the videos on this page to be returned as the results.
 * What’s my best bet here?

 * I think that this can be done by adding a hidden field in your search.
 * Here’s an old tutorial – [http://www.sandboxdev.com/2007/10/10/search-specific-category-in-wordpress/](http://www.sandboxdev.com/2007/10/10/search-specific-category-in-wordpress/)
 * Hopefully this helps.
 * This thread here talks about limiting the search for a custom post type – [http://wordpress.org/support/topic/limit-search-results-to-custom-post-type?replies=19](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/limit-search-results-to-custom-post-type?replies=19)
