Hello!

Sorry I think I was not very clear. I did not mean google search, I meant the internal wordpress site search. It seems to work well in both the original and translated language. Except when I make a change to the title or content. Then, it just never updates your trp original meta database with the change.

In other words, if the translated title is “AAAA”, and I later change the original language post title and translate it again, now to “BBBB”, when I search my site in the 2nd language and search for BBBB, the post does not show up. If I search AAAA it does. So it keeps the old title for the search, not the new.

Just to reiterate, it has nothing to do with SEO or google search. I have already read through your whole search article but I’m just using the normal wordpress search feature, no other plugins or anything, so this makes me think it may be a bug.

Thank you!

Thanks for all your help! I don’t really know much (if anything) of MySQL so I’m a bit hesitant to go that route but I guess I can give it a try; it does seem to be the way to go to avoid any hooks from running.

Alternately, I’m wondering if perhaps cmb2 is taking the metas from the child because the global $post is equal to the child post when I run wp_update_post(). If so, maybe overwriting it before running the function could be another method? Don’t know if that makes any sense, just a thought.

Thanks a lot Michael!

I’m unsure of what was happening. My code was the same I posted in here except I was using my site’s prefix in the field ‘id’. I tried changing small parts and for some reason it all worked out when I changed the id to another string. Returning to the old string breaks it so I guess maybe I’m already using that meta key? Anyways, thanks for your help.
