In that case it may be better to run a custom query on the WP database.

I think you could still detect your various search parameters via $_GET variable. Then use those parameters to construct a custom query using $wpdb->get_results(). See http://codex.wordpress.org/Displaying_Posts_Using_a_Custom_Select_Query for more info.

Good luck!

i would appreciate it if you do post up a working example.

my problem is i want to be able to custom my search to ONLY certain categories, and ONLY by certain fields (Titles) or by custom fields (actors.)

as you may guess, i’m doing a movie review site.

any help is appreciated, thanks

Hi Bjarni

I have a working example but currently on a development server only, for a client project. Guess I could make a public working version sometime when I get a moment, if you think that’s useful.
