You could try to add:

https://select2.github.io/

Otherwise, you can get a similar feature in the Pro version: demo.designsandcode.com/sfpro-movie-reviews/

Thanks

I’m not sure, it looks like there is an error after submitting the form, so you don’t get redirected to the correct place.

This can occur if you have even an unrelated error in your site somewhere, because this can break http redirects (which is required in S&F).

I would enable WP_DEBUG and see if you get any WP or PHP errors in general, an d fix those – then it should be safe to assume the redirects will work.

Thanks

Hey there

You can use CSS to style them – so it would be a case of adding some rules for the search form in your themes stylesheet somewhere.

What you want to achieve specifically layout wise is something you would have to figure out for your theme and setup.

Like the site BTW!

Thanks

Hey Diana

In S&F free, S&F simply uses URLs that should work in WP regardless of S&F’s existence.

For example, when you search for a category you will be redirected to www.yoursite.com/category/some-category-name

This is a URL already existing for your archives.

Then when you use a search term, S&F just adds a ?s=searchterm to your URL – again this should work in WP as standard.

So a search for both a category and a search term should result in a URL like:

www.yoursite.com/category/some-category-name/?s=searchterm

If this is the kind of URL you get, but the results are not accurate, then there is an issue somewhere else in your setup, possibly your theme, plugin or custom code.

I would probably try disabling plugins and testing on a WP theme to see if you still get the issue.

Thanks

Hey there, this is not really a S&F question, but I think you would be fine to go ahead and remove everything IF you were planning not to use it for anything.

Thanks

Thanks for the message, lets keep our conversation over on the pro forums.

Ross

Hey there, I think you’ve got free confused with pro – the docs for the free version are here:

http://docs.designsandcode.com/search-filter

I will just mention we are working on a big update to free, and adding in all the UI etc from what you have seen in the video 🙂

Thanks

This plugin won’t search youtube directly, however it may be possible to sync the youtube channel with a custom post type, which then S&F *could* search.

The first step though, sounds like a lot of work unless there is already a solution out there.

Edit – I just checked…

It looks like this plugin does store videos from a channel as a custom post type (but has some not great reviews)
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/automatic-youtube-video-posts/

Maybe this (but no mention of custom post type) – https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/youtube-channel-gallery/

The only thing that might be worth checking is that if you do find a plugin that does this, that it also imports the data as taxonomies.

Thanks
