I’m looking to use SearchWP to search for just events. However, past events also appear at the moment, and they have this custom function (see below) to exclude certain things, and I’m looking to exclude the past archive events, but I can’t see what the taxonomy would be to add in the code below to replace the ids. Any ideas?

<?php
 
function my_searchwp_exclude( $ids, $engine, $terms )
{
  $ids[] = 78; // forcefully exclude post 78
  return $ids;
}
 
add_filter( 'searchwp_exclude', 'my_searchwp_exclude', 10, 3 );

Thanks, this worked great.

Here was the final function for SearchWP.

// Excludes archived events
function my_searchwp_exclude( $ids, $engine, $terms ) {
	if ( class_exists( 'EE_Registry' ) ) {
		$exclude_query[0] = array(
			'Datetime.DTT_EVT_end' => array(
				'>', EEM_Datetime::instance()->current_time_for_query( 'DTT_EVT_end' )
			)
		);
		//first get all events that have datetimes where its not expired.
		$exclude_event_ids = EE_Registry::instance()->load_model( 'Event' )->get_all_wpdb_results( $exclude_query, OBJECT_K, 'Event_CPT.ID' );
		$exclude_event_ids = array_keys( $exclude_event_ids );
		//Grab all events where the Datetime end date is less than today (expired) excluding the events we pulled in above.
		$where_params['AND'] = array(
			'Datetime.DTT_EVT_end' => array( '<', EEM_Datetime::instance()->current_time_for_query( 'DTT_EVT_end' ) ),
			'EVT_ID' => array( 'NOT IN', $exclude_event_ids )
		);
		$query_params[0] = $where_params;
		$expired_event_ids = EE_Registry::instance()->load_model( 'Event' )->get_all_wpdb_results( $query_params, OBJECT_K, 'Event_CPT.ID' );
		$expired_event_ids = array_keys( $expired_event_ids );
		//$expired_event_ids is now an array containing the ID's of the expired events.
		//If using Kint debugger you can view this using:
		//d($expired_event_ids);
		//Otherwise just:
		//var_dump($expired_event_ids)
		$ids = array_merge( $ids, $expired_event_ids );
		$ids = array_unique( $ids );
	}
	return $ids;
}
add_filter( 'searchwp_exclude', 'my_searchwp_exclude', 10, 3 );
