I would like to configure the Ajax Pro search to be able to
1. not search automatically when the page is loaded or settings are changed. IOW’s to search only when asked to do so.
2. To be able to list the categories unchecked on the search page (i can do this) and then to have the search only search on the category where the checkbox is checked. (ignore other categories that are unchecked) If two categories are checked to search on both of those categories and only those categories.
Is this possible? So far I haven’t gotten an understanding of what the category checkboxes do. Is there some support data on how those work if they are checked and if they are unchecked? if multiple checkboxes are checked?
3. Also I seem to be getting results that don’t align with the checkboxes for search title, search content. I can’t see a pattern for if those are checked or unchecked. What should the result be from checking or unchecking those checkboxes?
Thanks
Tom
Hi,
1. You can enable/disabled triggers under the General Options -> Logic & Behavior panel. You are looking for this option exactly: https://i.imgur.com/4EWcq9S.png
2. Yes, that is possible, by changing the checkbox logic here: https://i.imgur.com/I5u2wnl.png
I suggest experimenting with the different values.3. Those could be results that does not have relation to the given taxonomy, you can change this option to exclude them: https://i.imgur.com/hoob1li.png
Thank you! Great success following your suggestions. It is precisely what I was looking for. Many thanks!
The only problem now is that the checks in the checkboxes are not centered. You can only see a small part of them. Is there a way to center those checkmarks? I will attach a small file that shows the problem.
Great plugin! thanks.

Hi Tom!
Looks like it’s a margin/padding styling conflict of some sort. To be able to tell exactly I will have to look at it directly. Can you please direct me to a page where this is visible?
I will then possibly suggest a custom CSS to override the conflict.Thanks for your offer to have a look. Much appreciated. Here’s a page:

I wonder if it might be related to the CSS you have given me before. Just in case here is the code that I added to the site.
Thank you,
Tom
.asp_sb {
max-width: none !important;
}.asp_sb fieldset {
flex: 1 1 0 !important;
}.asp_sb fieldset.asp_filter_tax {
flex: 10 1 auto !important;
}.asp_filter_tax,
.asp_filter_tax .asp_simplebar-content {
display: flex !important;
flex-wrap: wrap;
}Hi,
No, it is not related to that. There is a generic rule in the theme stylesheet, that sets the text indent to -15px, that is causing the problem 🙂
To resolve that, please also add this custom CSS:
.asp_w * { text-indent: initial; }Perfect! Many thanks for a great plugin and your fantastic support that configures things just as the end user wants. I can’t think of another plugin that offers this kind of support.
