 * We are facing this issue that when we search on the forum, the search results
   shows us only single resulted pages with a lot of pagination instead of list 
   of results matching the keyword.
 * Please let us know a solution for this.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsearch-functionality-not-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * I get your problem. Why don’t you try using [this plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-fastest-site-search/).
   The benefit is that it gives a customizable search ranking. It also allows you
   to control how the results are displayed like adjusting the number of results
   per page as you want.
 * You can find more info on how to set it up [here](https://blog.expertrec.com/wordpress-search-not-working-how-to-fix/).
 * It’s a pretty straightforward fix. This is a paid plugin costing $9.
