A View querying a custom field indexed by Relevanssi shows no results

Symptoms

There is an issue where a View outputs “No results found” when querying by a custom field indexed by Relevanssi.

This issue happens under the following conditions:

• You have a custom field attached to a post type.
• You use Rellevanssi to configure the field to be indexable.
• You created a View with a custom search and added the following query filter to it:
  • “Search for a text, set by the View shortcode attribute:”
• You added the View to a page and passed the field value in a shortcode

On the front-end, the search will not work and you will get no results found.

Workaround

Currently, there is no workaround for this issue.

The issue has been reported to the development team and they will work on it as soon as possible.
