 * Hi, open your theme’s functions.php file and paste this code:
 *     ```
       function search_filter($query) {
         if ( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
       	if ($query->is_search) {
       	  $query->set('post_type', 'post');
       	}
         }
       }
       add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'search_filter' );
       ```
