Ah! This is working great!
It wasn't obvious (to me, at least 🙂 that this could be used for search results.

I do have one additional related issue I'm not able to figure out:
The Relevanssi results shorten the Body text to the relevant area, and give em tags to the located search terms.
I did not suppress third-party filters, and I tried the Output "Inherit" option as well.
I searched through other fields, but did not find one for Relevanssi's output.
Is there a way to restore this?
Thank you!

Hello,

There isn't such a built-in feature within Views plugin, as a workaround you can try another shortcode [wpv-post-excerpt]:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views-shortcodes/#vf-153377

With this shortcode, you can specific Number of characters or words to be displayed, for example:
[wpv-post-excerpt length="30" count="word" more=" - ..."]

But there isn't the option to give em tags to the located search terms.

If you agree, we can take it as a feature request, our developers will evaluate it.

Yes, I think this would be a great feature request.
Especially considering that Relevanssi is not able to show custom post types with featured images, and Toolset's Views comes close to rounding out the solution. But sacrificing the result output from Relevanssi isn't quite "taking it all the way home."
This might be a team effort between Relevanssi and Toolset, but would love to see it happen! Thank you once again.
