# search results from wp_query content

 * I have created a few custom post types with custom fields (ACF) to keep my content
   very organized. In my template I use WP_Query to populate page segments pulled
   from the CTP and ACF. I was asked to include a search box but what I have discovered
   it the content display on screen via the WO_Query is not searched. My search 
   results include only the CPT posts.
 * How do I get my search results to display the rendered page whose template uses
   the wp_query to populate the content of the page.
 * Thank You

 * Your theme’s search.php (or index.php if lacking search.php) template is responsible
   for rendering raw search results in a presentable manner. You could include other
   template parts as part of this if need be.
 * The search.php template is used for any search query, rendering regular posts
   like you would for your CPT is probably inappropriate. Thus you probably need
   a conditional that says basically “if the current post is my CPT, include the
   related template part, otherwise do the normal post output.”
