Hi Shelby

Thanks for your offer to help.

I think the problem lies with the theme, Genesis Framework.

Is it possible to PM you the live link? I don’t see a way to PM you on your profile.

Oh that’s great, thank you!

See footer of this page microfinance-pasifika.org

If you click on a dot, the full page of images scrolls but the autoplay doesn’t scroll per page, it advances images only one by one. The autoplay should work like the footer on this page bwtp.org

OK that didn’t work. What I’m trying to achieve is for the code to be output as an actual hyperlink from the echo which is within the filter, rather than output as a string with a href etc.

If you insert the first block of code above in your theme’s function file, then the fields should show up on the search form on the front-end. If you used my edited code above, did you enter the correct form ID? Are you using a child theme and if so, did you remember to edit the child theme’s function file rather than the parent theme’s function file?

If you are still having trouble, post your function file code here and I will take a look. I’m not an expert but maybe I can help.

With some minor adjustments, I have it working, thank you so much for your assistance!

First in functions.php file, add the drop-down fields to the search form, including the form ID if applicable:

add_action('uwpqsf_form_bottom', 'add_years_field');
function add_years_field($atts){
  if($atts['id'] == '4863'){
   echo '<label>Years</label>';
   echo '<select name="byyear" >';//the name attribute is important, it will be used later.
   echo '<option value="2012">2012</option>';
   echo '<option value="2013">2013</option>';
   echo '<option value="2014">2014</option>';

   echo '</select>';
  }
}

I changed:

add_years_field($atts)()

to:

add_years_field($atts)

and:

if(atts['id']

to:

if($atts['id']

Secondly, search the posts by published date:

add_filter('uwpqsf_query_args', 'add_years_query','',3);
function add_years_query($args, $id,$getdata){
   if(isset($getdata['byyear'])  ) {//only add the query if user enter the byyear input
      $args['date_query'] = array(
		array(
			'year' => $getdata['byyear'],
		),
	);
   }
  return $args;
}

I removed this section of code:

&& !empty($getadata['byyear'])

I hope I didn’t do anything too drastic and thank you again for your incredible support.

What I mean is the published year needs to be retrived from the database table wp_posts.post_date.

Just search by year. Sorry I should have mentioned that!
