Limiting Search Results to the Active bbPress Forum
Some bbPress forum installs are huge. Perhaps you’d like to help out your visitors by limiting the on-page search to the Forum currently being viewed. We can customize the output of get_search_form()
(which includes the WordPress Search (not bbPress) Widget) to only consider the bbPress Forum currently on display when searching:
All hooks should be added to your custom SearchWP Customizations Plugin.
<?php | |
// Customize native WordPress search form to include current bbPress Forum ID if applicable. | |
// @link https://searchwp.com/documentation/knowledge-base/limiting-search-results-bbpress/ | |
add_filter( 'get_search_form', function( $markup ) { | |
if ( ! function_exists( 'bbp_get_forum_id' ) ) { | |
return $markup; | |
} | |
$forum_id = isset( $_REQUEST['swpforumid'] ) ? absint( $_REQUEST['swpforumid'] ) : bbp_get_forum_id(); | |
if ( empty( $forum_id ) ) { | |
return $markup; | |
} | |
return str_replace( '</form>', | |
'<input type="hidden" name="swpforumid" value="' . esc_attr( $forum_id ) . '" /></form>', | |
$markup | |

add_filter( 'searchwp\query\mods', function( $mods, $query ) { | |

return $mods; | |
} | |
$mod = new \SearchWP\Mod( | |
\SearchWP\Utils::get_post_type_source_name( 'post' ) | |
); | |
$mod->set_where( [ [ | |
'column' => 'id', | |
'value' => absint( $_REQUEST['swpforumid'] ), | |
'compare' => '=', | |
