The official Wordpress documentation can be found here.

“Why isn’t my LIKE query returning data in WordPress?”

I really don’t know what’s the issue. I think my code is OK but the output is wrong. I don’t know anything about WordPress, please help me.

elseif ($_GET['search']) {
    $args = array(
        'post_type' => 'head_to_toe_videos',
        'post_status' => 'publish',
        'meta_query' => array(
            array(
                'key' => 'post_title',
                'value' => $_GET['search'],
                'compare' => 'LIKE',
            )
        ),
        'posts_per_page' => 12,
    );
}

    Your query is correct but need to execute you query like this:

    $the_query = new WP_Query( $args );
$result = $the_query->get_results();

echo "<pre>"; print_r($result); exit;
