Search ‘hidden’ meta fields

    Hi,
    We’ve been trying out Ivory-Search for one of our projects and it looks promising for our needs. One issue we have is we don’t see an option to search our custom meta fields that start with an underscore (i.e. fields that are hidden from the standard Custom Fields metabox). Can the “Search selected custom fields values” (under Extras) also include these ‘hidden’ meta fields? Or is that an option available in the Pro version?

    Kind regards,
    Jasper

    I hope you are well today, and thank you for your question.

    By default, the plugin doesn’t search private custom fields.

    You can make it the private hidden custom fields searchable by using the shared small custom plugin or by using the code from it.
