 * Hello,
 * On the search property page, I wish to add main fields like Property Status ,
   Property Type, Area etc using the shortcode.
 * I am using this :
 * [es_my_listing enable_search=”1″ ignore_search=”0″ [es_search_form search_type
   =simple enable_saved_search=0 main_fields = property-type, area, location ]]
 * Only the Property Type option shows up, others (area, location) are not seen.

 * Kindly let me know how to add multiple main fields. Thank you!
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fsimple-search-shortcode-not-working%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hi,
 * Your shortcode is incorrect. There is another shortcode inside your first one.
   =) Please try this one:
 * [es_my_listing enable_search=1 main_fields=”es_type,area”] but it’s not clear
   which location do you want to use. There are different location fields like city,
   address, state, etc.

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for your response but if I am using the shortcode which you have provided
   even then the main fields are not visible .
 * Further, I have added location and other fields which I want on the main search.

 * If I am adding the search using elementor then it is not ajax. Like click on 
   the search icon is required. I want ajax with the fields which I have added. 
   Kindly let me know how to do the same.
 * Thank you!
