It’s surely a stlyesheet issue on the frontend and the javascript issue on the backend. These issues are related to the theme or plugins.
I can’t tell what exactly causes unless I see it. If you can provide an url, I can check. Try to switch the theme to the default and see what happens. If it’s not working, then it’s a plugin causing the problem.
Hi!
Thanks for the clarification. I turned the language temporary to english (because I didn’t want to mess up anything 😉 ) and disabled caching temporary for testing.
1. Okay, now it shows related posts from the same categories (some posts have more than 1) where the post is in. I’ve made a few modifications on the plugin code to achieve that.
2. It’s actually adjustable on the backend, but I did it for you: http://i.imgur.com/oODM4sZ.png
The plugin should work now as you expected.
Sorry about that, that’s actually my fault. I forgot to switch back the debug mode and that’s why it printed out this information.
I just turned it off, it should not be visible anymore.
Hi!
I’ve enabled the plugin and it’s working fine right now when I add it to the sidebar: http://i.imgur.com/sCP5Qm2.png
Your purchase code shows me a purchase date and time Sun Dec 07 22:00:13 +1100 2014 which is not corresponding with the search version you use. Your site has plugin version 3.1 installed, which should not be available from 7th of october. On 7th of december you should have gotten version 3.5.
In case you are using a 3rd party pirated version, please completely delete it, it’s very dangerous. 3.1 is a well known pirated copy and most of the free pirated downloads can contain malicious code, which steals your server credentials, like mysql passwords, admin passwords, corrupts the file system and installs backdoors to your wordpress installs. If that’s not the case, then my apologies.
Either way, please upgrade to version 3.5 which should be available on codecanyon if you download the plugin. An bugfixed version was uploaded just yesterday. The documentation contains information about how to upgrade, which you can find here: http://wp-dreams.com/demo/wp-ajax-search-pro3/docs/#important_upgrade_notes
Let me know if you still experience the issues after the upgrade.
Hi!
Thank you very much! I’m out of office on mobile, I will assist you tomorrow morning (12hours).
If I understand correctly you want to show the posts from the actual post category without the author and the date. The category thing might need a bit of adjustment on the code, so I might use the ftp access you provided.
Will contact you tomorrow.
No problem 😉
Nah, you don’t need to change anything right now. Everything from the baby sign language category will be included in the results.
Hi!
Yes exactly. If the category is excluded, then all the posts are eleminated in that category from the results. There is a setting to change that to every category instead of any category, that is what you need. I already switched that setting for you. (general options panel -> behavior -> terms logic -> OR)
This results only showing posts from the excluded category 😉
Yes it indeed slows down, because on the server side it actually does the opposite – it matches the posts to eleminate with the excluded categories. However it’s fixed as well with the upper mentioned option.
It should return posts now from only the Baby Sign language category with much better speed.
Hi again!
The problem was that no custom fields were actually selected to search on the general options page, so I examined a product and added a few related custom fields to search: http://i.imgur.com/3hVdeR9.png
Also I see you use a custom field as well to store images, so I changed the image settings according to that. The post content field is empty for this custom post type, so I chaned the description field to the “prod_featured_text”: http://i.imgur.com/kfYMjQI.png
This way both images and a proper description will show 😉
Hi!
Thanks for the proper details.
1. You had grouping turned on, which resulted in trimming the categories from the results – since it’s not possible to group the category term to a category (because it’s the category itself).
2. The plugin cannot override the layout of the default search results of the theme, it’s unfortunately not possible in wordpress. It can only override the result items – so you get the same results as in the ajax search process. (except for terms and categories, those can’t be displayed on the wordpress search page)
4. Okay, I’m a bit tired, sorry for that, it’s a bit late here 😀
So I checked your configuration and you have excluded all the categories on the “Frontend search settings” panel. However this does not mean that these categories are in fact excluded, they are only excluded from showing, so they are not visible but still included.
There is another category exclude option on the “Advanced options” panel. The posts from categories excluded there will not show up whatsoever.
I know it’s confusing, but it was neccessary. Many people requested to have only a few categories visible on the frontend, yet many others have excluded. So the category selector box on the “Frontend search settings” panel is only for the visibility in the settings box, but it does not affect the outcome, unless the user deselects some of the categories.
To permanently exclude categories you need to use the one on the “Advanced options” panel. I hope I understood you correctly 😀
Well I have found it 😉
It was actually the color picker on the search preview window. I don’t know why, it beats me. Anyways I disabled that small piece of code and now it works.
This is a temporary solution, but please use it for now. I will update on my end as well, but I need to make more tests to make sure it’s not causing other issues – so it’s probably going to be included only later.
I will check the drag and drop as well in a moment, I almost forgot it. Maybe it’s not even related to that script after all. If I find the cause, I will fix it.
