Search Results issues
I am having a couple issues with my Search Results Template in Brizy.
1) It seems that Author information is not being factored into the Search results. For example, Jenn Fox wrote the blog post "States: We’re looking at you. We need you." But if I use the search terms "Jenn states" this post does not show up in the result. Is there something in settings to make sure Author information is used in Search function?
2) I want the Title of the search results page to use dynamic text and let people know what the search results are for. For example, if I search "Jenn states" then the title at the top of the page would say "Search result for "Jenn states"" with the search term being dynamically generated. Is this the "Archive Title" field? Or something else? I have tried a couple of options and not gotten it to work successfully yet.
Appreciate your help on these issues.

Hi Eric,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
About the Author information not being factored into the search results, I'd like to clarify that Brizy's search function is based on the WP Search function. By default, the WP Search function doesn't include Author information in the search results.
Unfortunately, having dynamic text displaying the search term in the search results page title is not possible and will require custom code - https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/370780/change-the-text-search-result-for-on-search-result-page
To achieve the desired outcome, you might need to explore third-party plugins that extend the search functionality to include Author information - https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/131340/how-to-add-the-author-search-in-the-default-wordpress-search
I hope this helps.
Best regards,

Ok, thank you for providing a response. I will look into these and see if we want to test trying additional plugins.
