I just fixed it.
It was actually my search page url that was breaking the communication. I don’t know why it happened on the Divi Builder template, but since I’m not using it and my custom page is working now, I don’t care. Hopefully that crazy “broken layout” I described earlier doesn’t happen with the search page.
Now I have a problem that in my results, the link for my results header won’t go anywhere.
It is set correctly in Divi, so if I just load the page with no results (like /search without the /?asp stuff) the link works fine and goes to article. but if I load the actual results, you get the rollover icon in the browser, so it thinks it’s a link, it just does nothing. I tried messing with Z-index and that didn’t help.
Are there any settings or have you heard of this happening before? It is just an H1 title (like in your video tutorial), just for some reason when the dynamic ASP results load, the link won’t work even thought the browser knows it’s a link.
Thanks for any help!
Update/Edit:
Since Divi’s header module in the loop doesn’t actually output an <a> tag, it uses module javascript on the module itself, the link isn’t working. (I think – my theory)
I changed the Header to a Button instead and just got rid of all the button styling and set the same dynamic Loop Post Title and Loop Link and now that works.
I guess this is a workaround…
Any idea/way to get a Heading/Text module to work like in your example video though? Maybe I missed something.
