After a search for a word that appears only in the topic title (but not the tags, nor post content) the results are listed, followed by:

No results found.

This is because the if statement is looking for the local variable $topics, instead of the correct variable $titles.

It’s a small fix, but I didn’t know how to post on the bbPress bugtracker.

So i think the database field title is not included in the search ?

Oh no, quite the contrary. The results are shown fine too. The problem is when the titles are show a local variable $topics is created:

<?php

foreach ( $titles as $topic ) :

$count = $topic->topic_posts;

?>

This is all fine and dandy, but, as you can see, $topic is a local variable and won’t be any use further down the page when the code checks whether results have been returned or not.

I hope I’m making myself clear. Let me reiterate just for kicks: The title results show up fine, but the php code prints “No results found.” as well. Just change $topics to $titles in the following code in the template file “search.php”:

<?php if ( !$topics && !$recent && !$relevant && !$users) : ?>

<?php _e('No results found.') ?>



<?php endif; ?>
