    I am interested to learn more about how the search functionality is set up. In my tests, it seems to only bring listings up if the town name is within the business address.

    Location tags don't seem to make a difference. For example, I added a location tag of a nearby town to a listing but it didn't come up in a search for that town. Also, you can't search by postcode.

    I'd like the search to be as useful as possible for my users, so if I could better understand how the functionality works with these elements of the theme that would be useful.

    Many thanks

    Hello,

    Hope you are doing good,

    I would like to tell you that the theme has an advanced search, It gives you results on the basis of Listing tags, Listing location, Listing categories, Listing title and Listing content.

    Try it and you will get what I mean to say.

    Hope you understand this.

    Do let me know if you need further assistance.

    I will be glad to assist you.

    Regards,
    Akbar

    Is it possible to have the location search function use a different field other than the 'geo_address' one? I can't find in the code where I can change this.
    thanks
