How to search acf qtranslate fields?

[fariskas]

I'm using this plugin with acf. I realised that searches made with the default wp query doesnt work with text from qtranslate acf fields.

i've also used this : https://wordpress.org/plugins/acf-better-search/ And it only works for normal acf fields and not acf-qtranslate fields.

Any idea ?

ACF Better Search doesn't support selecting custom field types from its settings page. However you should be able to manually update the setting to include the custom fields types.

update_option('acfbs_fields_types', [
    'text',
    'textarea',
    'number',
    'email',
    'url',
    'file',
    'wysiwyg',
    'select',
    'checkbox',
    'radio',
    'qtranslate_file',
    'qtranslate_image',
    'qtranslate_post_object',
    'qtranslate_text',
    'qtranslate_textarea',
    'qtranslate_url',
    'qtranslate_wysiwyg',
]);
