This may be super easy to fix but I am having trouble locating this function or how to get these things working together. I have 2 search bars on the site. One in the header and one on the search results page. I want to keep the results separated for one on the header search bar and then one is being used on the Search results page. When pressing enter in the search bar in the header, it redirects to the search result page but is not pulling up the search term in the other search bar or search results.
I had to remove the search bar on the first page because the results were showing in 2 places on the front page. To state what I am getting at is how do I have a search bar in the header that can have a dropdown but also have it go to a page like lifetechstl.org/search-all that shows the results on the page.
Okay, so from what I can see is that you have a search on the results page, which basically should be auto-started whenever the results page is visited, right? That should be resolved via the auto-populate feature. I believe that’s what you are looking for.
Also, I may recommend turning off this option, so that the results area never closes when the user clicks away.
