Unfortunately that didn’t work. Thanks for the help.

I found the error. There was a problem with my loop in the search.php. Sorry for the inconvenience – I should have checked the theme first. I will give your plugin a good rating 🙂

I first used WP Extend Search plugin and when that didn’t work I used the following code in my functions.php

function filter_search($query) {
    if ($query->is_search) {
    $query->set('post_type', array('post', 'page', 'tribe_events'));
    };
    return $query;
};
add_filter('pre_get_posts', 'filter_search');
