I am writing to let you know I have been in communication with FacetWP and they were very responsive and helpful in guiding me to find a solution for this.
Quick followup on my previous message… I reached out to FacetWP support and they mentioned, “You need to find a way to change the search box’s name/action as described in the tutorial https://facetwp.com/redirect-a-search-box-to-a-facetwp-results-page/. If you are using the FiboSearch searchbox, you need to find out if Fibo has a hook to do that.”
Do you have a hook to change the name/action for your search field?
Thanks for the suggestion but I already have those two settings (“show ghosts” and “preserve ghost order”) enabled and the non-visible filters are not available.
As previously mentioned, the issue is because of the permalink structure that is returned after the Fibosearch search field is used. All FacetWP filters are available only when the permalink search query includes their plugin parameters.
Thanks for the reply and apologies for the delayed response; I have been out of town. I tried your suggested code snippet and that appears to work identically to how the plugin returns results out of the box except that /shop/ is now part of the permalink structure. That is a positive.
However, the issue I am continuing to have is that the FacetWP filters are unusable after using the FiboSearch field because of the permalink structure that is returned after a search. Not all FacetWP filters are available because of the search query string being returned by FiboSearch. See below for screenshot of results.
Unfortunately when I added the code snippet you suggested it did not work. My co-worker and I have spent the morning trying to figure it out but no luck yet. We’re still digging.
@philsbury I did try the code you sent and the form does show on mobile. Thank you!
However, now the user has to click the button twice before the age gate will go away. I took all our custom styling off and it still requires a double click. Our client would like it to be a single click. Any thoughts on that?
(P.S. Sorry for the delay, I put the code in place and cleared the cache when I got your response. I have had a message up to send you but I a few calls came in.)
@philsbury As you suspected that did not work, unfortunately. I find it very odd that the form appears when switching between portrait and landscape orientation. And that this seemingly happens only on certain pages.
I haven’t found a solution but perhaps this will be a starting point for you…
After going through my files it looks like it may be a conflict with some classes in the menu navigation. Though I’m unsure of why it is impacting only certain pages since the menu is global.
For mobile the class .nav is set to position:absolute, which could be the conflict because when I comment that out, the age gate appears. Obviously that is how the site menu operates so I cannot comment out the code and would need a workaround for age gate.
Additionally I found if I comment out the below code (while the above mentioned .nav postion:absolute is still active) in the the theme js file, the age gate appears but I can’t figure out what the conflict actually is.
Actually, I removed all of the queries from the pages in question and the form still does not display in portrait mode. Have you ever seen such a thing? Any thoughts on where there could be a conflict would be appreciated.

@carnets2routards Unfortunately I never received any further update/instructions from the plugin author and did not figure out a workaround on either of my original requests, so we used the plugin as it’s setup to be used.
