Fix AJAX search results showing results in multiple languages w/ WPML installed

[anto80]

Hello,

My website is running WPML with 2 languages. The issue I have is related to the AJAX search results that appear once you type a few letters in the search field, which are showing results for both languages.

For example, if you type “fridge” into the search field, it will begin showing results once “fri” is typed, and those results will show products in 2 languages because the letters “fri” appear in the product titles of both languages.

Can you modify the JavaScript code responsible for making the AJAX requests so that it includes the current language information and passes it to the server when requesting search results?

Hope this is an easy fix, thanks in advance for your support!

Please add this custom code to the file functions.php:

function petpuzzy_ajax_search_products() {
        global $woocommerce;
        $search_keyword = $_REQUEST['query'];

        $ordering_args = $woocommerce->query->get_catalog_ordering_args('date', 'desc');
        $suggestions = array();

        $args = array(
            's'                   => apply_filters('petpuzzy_ajax_search_products_search_query', $search_keyword),
            'post_type'           => 'product',
            'post_status'         => 'publish',
            'ignore_sticky_posts' => 1,
            'orderby'             => $ordering_args['orderby'],
            'order'               => $ordering_args['order'],
            'posts_per_page'      => apply_filters('petpuzzy_ajax_search_products_posts_per_page', 8),
            'supress_filters' => true

        );

        $args['tax_query']['relation'] = 'AND';

        if (!empty($_REQUEST['product_cat'])) {
            $args['tax_query'][] = array(
                'taxonomy' => 'product_cat',
                'field'    => 'slug',
                'terms'    => strip_tags($_REQUEST['product_cat']),
                'operator' => 'IN'
            );
        }

        $products = get_posts($args);

        if (!empty($products)) {
            foreach ($products as $post) {
                $product = wc_get_product($post);
                $product_image = wp_get_attachment_image_src(get_post_thumbnail_id($product->get_id()));

                $suggestions[] = apply_filters('petpuzzy_suggestion', array(
                    'id'    => $product->get_id(),
                    'value' => strip_tags($product->get_title()),
                    'url'   => $product->get_permalink(),
                    'img'   => esc_url($product_image[0]),
                    'price' => sprintf('<span class="price">%s</span>', $product->get_price_html()),
                ), $product);
            }
        } else {
            $suggestions[] = array(
                'id'    => -1,
                'value' => esc_html__('No results', 'petpuzzy'),
                'url'   => '',
            );
        }
        wp_reset_postdata();

        echo json_encode($suggestions);
        die();
    }

Thank you for the quick reply, but unfortunately that code did not work.

The code is in my functions.php file, but when I type “fri” in the search field on the English website, the suggestions also include French results.

Is there another snippet of code I can try?
