I am trying to do 2 things when searching through PDF files.
1) Search for specific articles that will be contained as post types with keywords, summary, etc
2) Offer an advanced search that would allow to search even deeper for a specific text string inside of a PDF file. I have the paid version of Relevanssi that can do this.

What is the best way to combine these 2?

Thanks,
Marianella

Hi Marianella,

When Relevanssi and Toolset are being used together, the control of the view's text search field is fully under Relevanssi.

This means that any features that are included in the Relevanssi (free and premium), they'll be naturally incorporated in the Toolset Views search too.

Both your points are covered under the Relevanssi premium account ( ref: hidden link ) and all you have to do is to create a search form using a Toolset view and include a text search field.

Here is the detailed guide on using the Relevanssi and Toolset together:
