Pressing the return button doesn't work

I’ve set in the setting Action when pressing the return button to trigger live search but it doesn’t work. Only clicking the magnifier icon works.

Hi,

Thank you for the notice.

I checked your configuration, and the triggers are set to activate after 5 characters. The magnifier is actually buggy, as it triggers before the number of characters is entered, that will be corrected in the next release.

If you want to only trigger the search on return/magnifier events, then I recommend this configuration: https://i.imgur.com/GI7q2ma.png
In that case the plugin will trigger even if there are no characters entered.

Thanks. If we don’t want to disable trigger live search when typing but still want people to be able to enter when the search term is less than 5 characters, is it possible to add some kind of script to make the enter work?

Actually, it could be possible.
Try adding this code to the functions.php file in your theme/child theme directory – make sure to have a full server back-up first for safety. For more details you can check the safe coding guidelines.

add_action('wp_footer', 'asp_add_footer_script');
function asp_add_footer_script() {
	?>
	<script>
	(function($){
		$('input.orig').on('keyup', function(e){ 
			if (e.which == 13) {
				ASP.api(1, 1, 'searchFor', $(this).val());
			}
		});
	}(WPD.dom));
	</script>
	<?php
}

Best,
