Hi,
1. If you want to use the same search bar, then the best option is to use a very simple CSS on the results page only to hide the search bar. If you place this to the results page, it will hide it and display only the settings:
.asp_m {
display: none !important;
}2. Use the results page live loading feature there. You may have to change the DOM selector to accomodate your exact page layout. In most cases the default works, but it depends on the exact theme structure.
This way you don’t need any duplicate search bars, and everything (filter states, search phrase etc..) will be passed to the results page when the initial search is made to the results page.
