Ajax Live Search

Hi, this is my first every post.

I am trying to add more information to my Ajax Live Search

Currently it brings up this information on the top part of the image

When I want it to bring forward this information at the bottom

This is the current code that brings forward what you see in the first part of the image, but I want it to bring more forward like in the second image, what would you add to bring forward the relevant information? Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

            $link = apply_filters('av_custom_url', get_permalink($post->ID), $post);

            $output .= "<a class ='av_ajax_search_entry {$extra_class}' href='".$link."'>";

            if ($image !== "" || $iconfont) {
                $output .= "<span class='av_ajax_search_image' {$iconfont}>";
                $output .= $image;
                $output .= "</span>";
            }
            $output .= "<span class='av_ajax_search_content'>";
            $output .= "    <span class='av_ajax_search_title'>";
            $output .=      get_the_title($post->ID);
            $output .= "    </span>";
            if ($excerpt !== '') {
                $output .= "    <span class='ajax_search_excerpt'>";
                $output .=      $excerpt;
                $output .= "    </span>";
            }
            $output .= "</span>";
            $output .= "</a>";
        }
    }

That is all HTML and CSS that you are apparently building…

Is it? I was working in .php where the Ajax live search is, the code above brings forward the title and excerpt, but I am trying to get it to bring other information from the same page.

You are building that html from there, from the looks of it.

It’s wordpress buddy.

Did you solve this one? Was not sure if you understand that Astone was asking about your filters.
Or where the data was being pulled from. It appears that it is part of another section.
Either the get_the_title($post->ID); part or the $excerpt section.

Once you figure out where it comes from, you can copy that section to the other area.

Doubt this helps…

All sorted, thanks guys
