 * Hi, I have a website with some products in 2 languages (italian and english),
   my problem is that when I search (though the standard WP search form) I get products
   in all languages… I tried to filter results with pre_get_posts to no avail though,
   what can I do?
 * Thanks

 * Hi, here’s an image showing the problem: [http://imgur.com/a/rAmt0](http://imgur.com/a/rAmt0)
 * What I do is:
    – switch language to english (default is italian) – do a search
   using a word that’s in both english and italian products
 * Search result should only show english products and not italian ones.
    The same
   apply when searching while in italian language, both languages appear.

 * To clarify, what’s “English” and “Italian” products?
    Do you have products that
   have ONLY English title and description, and not Italian? (and vice versa)

 * I have checked your site.
    I think you have incorrectly added text to posts. 
   First post (marked ENG) has text in English only. You can compare [http://www.tecmet2000.it/provini/series-c106100-hitech-europe/](http://www.tecmet2000.it/provini/series-c106100-hitech-europe/)
   and [http://www.tecmet2000.it/en/provini/series-c106100-hitech-europe/](http://www.tecmet2000.it/en/provini/series-c106100-hitech-europe/)
 * Second post (marked ITA ) has text in Italian only.
    You can compare [http://www.tecmet2000.it/provini/pulitrice-serie-ap32-hitech-europe/](http://www.tecmet2000.it/provini/pulitrice-serie-ap32-hitech-europe/)

 * But because these posts are different (have unique ID) they are showed in same
   page.

 * Yes, there are 6 categories with products in italian, but only one of those is
   translated (that’s on purpose), so there are a lot of products with only one 
   language.

 * Ok, it appears that some products have an italian version and an english version
   on two distinct products (which is bad), along with duplicated categories too…
   I’ve taken over this site from another guy and frankly didn’t check that, guess
   I’ll have to modify the sctructure (categories/products) in order to use translation
   tools and not duplicate content…
 * Thanks for the help!
