Default Search Not Working After Ajax Install

[sschochParticipant]

Hi, Ernest:

I have run into another issue and suspect it might be related to Ajax Search Pro (which is working beautifully, by the way). As I said before, we have a multisite installation of WordPress, with four child sites (let’s call them A, B, C, and D). I created one Ajax search, which appears on Site D, which uses the HelpGuru theme, via a shortcode in a theme PHP file

Here’s the problem. Sites A, B, and C all use the Bootstrap theme. The default search for sites A and C have suddenly stopped working (searching returns a “No results found” message). The default search for site B, which also uses the Boostrap theme, works fine. I haven’t changed anything in the configuration of any of the sites except Site D.

Do you have any ideas about why this is happening?

Many thanks, Stephanie

Hi Stephanie,

The plugin does not (or at least it should not) affect the built in search in any ways, unless the query is made via the ajax search pro form directly.

I suggest temporarily deactivating ajax search pro and checking if the issue persist. I’m almost sure it will.

Best,

Thank you for your reply. I did ask you suggested and as you predicted, the search doesn’t work even if Ajax is Network Disabled.

I did try replacing the default search with Ajax Pro on site A. It worked wonderfully except that when I clicked on More Results…, it went to the same “Nothing found” search page. Do you think it might be a problem with the Bootstrap theme?

Hi, Ernest:

We found the problem–a conflict with the WPML plugin. Thank you for your message, though. You can close this ticket.
