Hey robbonj

Can you check the site is still offline?? http://www.designsandcode.com/

That is alarming to say the least :/

I’m hoping its back up and was a blip for some strange reason..

Thanks

Hey CroiSciento, there is an options to direct the user to a page when there is a blank search but it considers the post type in the URL to not be a blank search.

I’ll do an update which fixes this and then you can use the param empty_search_url for the redirect – see the docs: http://docs.designsandcode.com/search-filter/#options

Thanks

Hey CroiSciento

This is not technically possible… because you use a custom post type, when you submit the form – even with all the tickboxes unticked, a user (and the plugin) still expects that you wish to do a search for a custom post type… Which is why you get the URL you mention…. It is a search results page – and you performed a search….

Let me have a think about this and get back to you – but I can’t think of any easy way to implement this…

Thanks

Hey cambridgesca, this is a problem I discovered not so long ago with PHP 5.3 users and below… basically there is a function that does not exist…

Add this to your functions.php file and it should work –

if (!function_exists('array_replace'))
{
	function array_replace()
	{
		$array=array();
		$n=func_num_args();
		while ($n-- >0)
		{
			$array+=func_get_arg($n);
		}
		return $array;
	}
}

I will include this in the next update

Hey r78o1k

The search results is displayed using a template from your theme, so you must find out which template is being used and edit this.

Looking at your site I think this will be category.php…

In here you will find some code:

the_content();

Remove this line to leave only the heading 🙂

Great suggestion.. and it’s already available in the pro version 😉

Hey egh9

Did you check the docs?

http://docs.designsandcode.com/search-filter/#example-6

This should give you an idea of how to do it… but instead change the field type to multiselect –

[searchandfilter fields="search,category,post_tag" types=",multiselect,multiselect" headings=",Categories,Tags"]

Does that make sense?

You must have the category field included in this list so that when a user submits the search they will stay in the same category…

🙂

Hey X-Raym thanks for the kind words 🙂

RE the operator, unfortunately this is not user selectable..

Would be great if you could leave a review by way of supporting the plug!

Thanks
