Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a issue-based magazine website. I want to make custom search from the existing post types that were created by some other plugin.
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Not found anything that specifically addresses my problem.
Is there a similar example that we can see?
The example site on cooking provides the similar results and views that i want.
What is the link to your site? The live site is at radianceweekly.in and staging site is at hidden link

Hello and thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I believe that would be possible and may have some limitations. It all depends on what you want to search with and how the 3rd party plugin stores it at the database level.

Searching with taxonomies, date fields, text fields, number fields, should be straightforward, or may need some custom code. But if the plugin stores the fields in a different way(serialized arrays, string-based dates), it may be a limitation.

Can you elaborate more on what filters you would like to search with? What are these plugins, especially if they are released in wordpress.org or a 3rd party marketplace?
