Hi,

Thank you very much for the proper details, it helped me a lot.

I have found the problem and fixed it. When the plugin was tryting to check which key was pressed, some other script modified the ‘window.event’ variable. The search tries to check this global variable first, as some older browsers store the keycode there. Apparently, another script (I don’t know which one), set that variable specifically on FireFox only, and the plugin recieved the wrong key type and key code.

I have made a direct change to the main plugin script file via FTP. I will try to incorporate this change to the next release as well, although the plugin is not the direct cause.

To have this solution permanent until then, please make sure to:
– Have a copy of this changed file on your server: \staging\1\wp-content\plugins\ajax-search-pro\js\nomin\jquery.ajaxsearchpro.js
– And also, this option must be set to ‘Non minified’: https://i.imgur.com/FC5h2Rg.png

After clearing your browser cache, the plugin should start working normally.

Best,
