I created a custom archive for search results.

To make it work with Relevanssi I followed this topic: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/custom-search-relevanssi/.
I added some code to functions.php of my theme. This makes highlight search term work.

You can view the result I have so far here: hidden link

First question: The excerpt in the search results is wrapped in <p></p> tags. However, I did not add these to my template in the Views WordPress archive. (view screenshot)
How can I get rid of these tags?

A second question is that I would like to show the Post type in the search results:
Filed under: Posts
Instead of "Posts" (the content type name) I would like to display: "News". How can I do that?

Hi, as a test, can you please temporarily remove the highlight_keyword shortcode? Is the extra p tag still included?

Instead of "Posts" (the content type name) I would like to display: "News". How can I do that?
You can use conditional HTML here. If the post type is equal to "post", then display "News" instead.

Filed under: [wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-type]' eq 'post' )"]News[/wpv-conditional]

Thank you, Christian,

The conditional HTML works fine. This part is resolved.

Not yet resolved:
I temporarily removed the highlight_keyword shortcode. Then extra p tag disappeared?
How can I resolve this?

I'm not familiar with the highlight_keyword shortcode. It's not native to WordPress, so it must be coming from somewhere else, like a theme or 3rd-party plugin. Can you tell me more about how it's implemented?

Hello Cristian,

The highlight_keyword shortcode is not native to WordPress. Here is how I implemented it:
I followed this tutorial. https://toolset.com/forums/topic/custom-search-relevanssi/.
I added the following to my functions.php:

// highlight keyword with relevanssi
// https://toolset.com/forums/topic/custom-search-relevanssi/
function highlight_keyword_func($atts, $content) {
    $content = do_shortcode($content);
    if(isset($_GET['s'])){
        $content = relevanssi_highlight_terms($content, $_GET['s']);
    }
    return $content;
}
add_shortcode( 'highlight-keyword', 'highlight_keyword_func' );

This is how I implemented the shortcode in the Toolset Views WordPress template:

[wpv-layout-start]
    [wpv-items-found]
<!-- wpv-loop-start -->
	<ul class="wpv-loop js-wpv-loop">
		<wpv-loop>
			<li>
			<h3>[wpv-post-link]</h3>
          	<p><em>[wpv-post-date]<br>Filed under: [wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-type]' eq 'post' )"]News[/wpv-conditional][wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-type]' ne 'post' )"][wpv-post-type show="plural"][/wpv-conditional] [wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-post-type]' eq 'post' )"] - [wpv-post-taxonomy type="category" format="name"][/wpv-conditional]</em>
             <br />
            [highlight-keyword][wpv-post-excerpt][/highlight-keyword]
           	</p>
			</li>
		</wpv-loop>
	</ul>
	<!-- wpv-loop-end -->
    [/wpv-items-found]
[wpv-layout-end]

Okay there's an option for the wpv-post-excerpt shortcode that might help suppress these paragraph tags. Try this:

 [highlight-keyword][wpv-post-excerpt format="noautop"][/highlight-keyword]

Thank you Christian, this works!
