Tell us what you are trying to do?
Hi, i have many post in my custom post typy and my users need automatic identificator for each of them, the order doesn't matter. And they need search post by this unique number.
I thought that the post-id is the best solution for my case, but I came across the fact that searching by post-ID does not work in filter in view.
I found a suggest on the forum that you can suggest create a custom field and assign it the post-id value and then can display the search filter for my custom field. But unfortunately I didn’t understand how to do it better. I tried to set a condition, but nothing worked for me. Help with any advice. Thanks.

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hello,

I assume you are going to a "Post ID" input box into the search form, and use it search the results by post IDs.

If it is, there isn't such kind of built-in feature within Toolset Views/Blocks plugin, but there is a workaround, for example:
1) Edit your post view, in section "Query Filter", add a post ID filter:
Include only posts with IDs determined by the URL parameter "post_ids" eg. yoursite/page-with-this-view/?post_ids=1

Above filter will be able to use URL parameter "post_ids" to fitler the result.

2) In section "Search and Pagination", display the search input box like this:

...
<label for="post_ids">[wpml-string context="wpv-views"]Post ID[/wpml-string]</label>
[wpv-control type="textfield" url_param="post_ids"]
...

Above shortcode will display a single line input box, and pass URL parameter "post_ids".

This shortcode will output filter controls for your custom searches.
