Hey there

It sounds like you have something in your setup checking to see if a search term is set, and if it is, changing the post type to something like posts or pages.

Check any custom code or pre_get_posts filters and other plugins you have installed to see if there are interfering.

Thanks

Hey there, you have are referring to the pro plugin.

Please open a ticket here – https://www.designsandcode.com/forums/forum/search-filter-pro/support/

We have resolved this issue so you should have no issues if you open a ticket with us 🙂

Thanks

Hi there

A lot of functionality you require is only available in pro, so the below answers are for the Pro plugin only.

To answer your questions:

1) I don’t understand this fully, custom fields cannot have sub categories – but using multiple taxonomies to display data is supported, you can get an effect like you mention – change genres and see how certificates updates – http://demo.designsandcode.com/sfpro-movie-reviews/

It is not possible to make a field compulsory yet – however, if you know jQuery, you could do this.

2) Not directly – I think you would need to create a new field, that adds together children and adults, and stores this as one number – then you could build a min/max for this field.

3) If you are comfortable with working with WP & PHP templates you could do this https://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/accessing-search-data/

4) Yes, you can wait for user to submit the form before loading the results page.

5) Yes this is correct, you can choose the slug of your results page, or run it off an existing page in WP – so then it would take the URL of the WP page.

6) Yup, S&F pro allows you to sort the results by 2 options – so this could be by two custom fields.

Thanks

I’m afraid not, you must link directly to your results page, instead of a custom page with shortcode – so probably you will have to link to:

yoursite.com/search/

and then you would need to make customisations in your search template – probably search.php but this depends on your theme.

Thanks

I’m afraid not, you can only use the category field once – http://docs.designsandcode.com/search-filter/#options – you may enable the hierarchical option for your fields though

Thanks

Hey there, its not an option, but you can use jQuery http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26785655/hide-first-option-in-select

Thanks

Thanks for the update!
