Using search results shortcode in AVADA

[clopez37]

I’m having trouble getting the results to show up once I hit return on the initial home page search.

Hi,

While the search results shortcode is not exactly for that purpose, in your case, you can still try using a custom URL, just append the asp_id=1&asp_s={phrase} to the query parameters:

/case-results?s={phrase}&asp_id=1&asp_s={phrase}

Use it with this setup: https://i.imgur.com/9NptW3v.png
It will trigger the search automatically after redirection.

I’m getting a TOO MANY REDIRECT error. Do you mind taking a look?

[Ernest Marcinko]

Sure! I didn’t notice you had a search button as well. I applied the custom URL there too: https://i.imgur.com/Ti6aPDb.png
It should be probably okay now.

Hi Ernest, I appreciate the super fast support! https://casebites.com/ here is the search where you can test, both hitting return and search still give me too many redirects for some reason after applying that custom URL. Please advise. I tried deleting all site data/cache and tested on another browser and still gives me error

Hi,

It works perfectly fine on my end in chrome, firefox and edge as well. Make sure to clear all your caches again, it should work all right.
If you have any custom redirect/rewrite rules, try turning them off as well temporarily.

Cleared cache, opened it in all my browser, on my phone, on a co-workers devices on a seperate network and they all had the same error of not loading.

Maybe we can start with debugging- hitting Enter or Return on the keyboard instead?

I believe i fixed it by removing case-results from /case-results?s={phrase}&asp_id=1&asp_s={phrase} and leaving it /?s={phrase}&asp_id=1&asp_s={phrase}

Hi, I’m not sure if this requires another ticket but is there a way to select a range of dates in the search filter? ex I want to search posts that have been publishing between Oct-Nov 2020.

Hi,

You don’t have to open a new ticket. You can do that via the date filters feature: https://documentation.ajaxsearchpro.com/frontend-search-settings/date-selectors
