How to Add a Filter to the Main Search Bar?

Add a filter to GeoDirectory's main search bar. You can add any Select type field to the search bar.

You need to access CPT > Settings > Search (tab) section to add fields to the Advanced Search Filters. For instance, this guide uses the Places CPT. You can select fields that can be added to main search bar therein.

Navigate to CPT > Settings > Search (tab). You will find two columns -- the left column has available fields, whereas the right column has active fields in the form. 

You can find details about the Search tab on Settings Overview page.

Click on the field that you wish to add. It will be added to the right column. You need to save each field before adding a new one.
