I am trying to build up my search args depending on variables passed through from a form.
What I want to do is add to args if values are present.
For example if there are dates I have:
$args = array(
'date_query' => array(
array(
'after' => $datestart,
'before' => $dateend,
'inclusive' => true,
),
),
);
}
and if there is a search query then I will have:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
's' => $search_query,
);
I have tried using
$args[]
to combine the arrays but that doesn’t seem to work in this instance.
I have also tried
array_push
and that doesn’t seem to work for me either.
I seem to end up with something that looks like this:
array(2) {
[0]=>
array(1) {
["date_query"]=>
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
["after"]=>
string(10) "2015-01-01"
["before"]=>
string(10) "2016-12-01"
["inclusive"]=>
bool(true)
}
}
}
[1]=>
array(2) {
["post_type"]=>
string(4) "post"
["s"]=>
string(7) "lecture"
}
}
I am sure there must be something obvious I am missing!
Any ideas will be appreciated!
