Hi Support,
I’ve searched the forum, but unfortunately had no chance to get such an information.Is it possible to set up a very simple search results page, which displays only a very simple list of the pages’ titles, a link to view them and nothing else? (no sidebar, no widgets, no comment links, etc…)
I’ve managed to customise the title and subtitle of the Search Results page by editing the _landmark-header.php file, but I can’t find anywhere the file that has the function to show the content of the search (…sorry, I’m not a PHP code expert!)
Here is what I get know
http://www.endeco.it/wp/?s=engineering&submit=SearchWhat file am I supposed to edit?
Could you please help me?Thanks in advance for your usual kindness!
Hi Endeco,
Thank you for writing in!
By default X doesn’t have search template file, you can either create one (http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Search_Page) or you can make editing in wp-content/themes/x/framework/views/global/_index.php.
Please also review our knowledge base article on: Customization Best Practices.
Cheers!
Thank you for the suggestion!
Even if I was a bit confused when starting, at last I managed to come through and made some customisation. I must admit that it’s a pretty difficult job for those who are not code-experts!
It would be nice to have a customisable results page available in the administration panel of the X theme… but that is!However, I have another search-related issue:
When I search something from this pages
http://www.endeco.it/wp/industry/
http://www.endeco.it/wp/oil-gas-and-energy/the search box doesn’t work properly and it sends me to another page of my website instead of displaying the search results…
Viceversa, in the other pages where the search box is present it seems to work properly
(for example http://www.endeco.it/wp/industry/chemical-industry/ )Any suggestion?
Thanks!
Hi Endeco,
Thank you for writing in!
We certainly appreciate the feedback! Adding search is something we can add to our list of feature requests. This way it can be taken into consideration for future development. All of these items are discussed with our team internally and prioritized based on the amount of interest a particular feature might receive.
Regarding the search functionality within the page, regretfully this isn’t a feature offered by X. It could be possible with custom development, but this would be outside the scope of support we can offer. However you can customize it by copying the file wp-content/themes/x/searchform.php into your child theme’s main folder.
Thank you for understanding. Take care!
Hi guys!
I’m experiencing another hitch with the output of the search results based on on the different languages of my site (English or French).
I’m using WPML plugin and I have added the “String translation” component that helps manage different output of text content for different languages.When I perform a search from an English page, results are displayed in a correct way.
(for example: http://www.endeco.it/?s=plastic&submit=Search )But if I search something starting from a French page, the result is not a list of boxes with the title of the pages/posts to click on. I can see a long unique page made up by the full content of the pages matching the search, as if a sort of one-page-navigation feature has been activated…
(for example: http://www.endeco.it/?s=plastique&submit=Search&lang=fr
Please note that French language is not active at the moment. If you need to view the corresponding french page of any english page of my site, please add the “lang=fr” variable to the URL)This is really strange! But although I don’t know what I’m doing wrong, I have the feeling that it is not a plugin-related issue… and I really hope that it will be inside the scope of your support service, because I’m really getting lost 😉
Thank you so much for considering my request.
Hey Endeco,
Please update X and the plugins included to their latest version first.
Thanks.
Sorry, only now I have realised that I had to install the latest version of X – Shortcodes.
My version of X theme is already up-to-date as it is the WordPress platform.
Now I have updated the Shortcodes plugin, however nothing has changed at the moment with regard to the above-mentioned problem…Hi There,
Before we can continue on debugging, can you please update your X theme and X shortcode to the latest version,
The latest version is already 2.6.0 and 2.5.0 while you’re still using 2.0.1 and 2.4.0.
You can simply follow the update guide from here -> http://theme.co/x/member/kb/updating-your-theme-and-plugins/
Also, Can you please advise what customization you have made for search template? did you create a search template file or did you customize some of the X file?
Cheers
Hi,
in reference to post #105743 above, please count me in as having an interest in this too.I have the same problem as everyone else with the search results. I have tried every solution I can find on this forum but nothing works for me, my search results page is still horrible, a single column of large, pixelated images with the title, author date.
Thank you,
Philip.Hi Philip,
Thanks for writing in! To assist you with this issue, we’ll first need you to provide us with your URL as stated on the forum entrance page. This is to ensure that we can provide you with a tailored answer to your situation. Once you have provided us with your URL, we will be happy to assist you with everything.
I can see this is an older thread, but I’d also be interested in seeing a feature added to the customizer to allow better control of the output to the search results page. I’ve got the same issue as mentioned above. Very large pixellated images with text below. (I’m using the Renew stack)
I’d love to have a result similar to this in Ethos – http://theme.co/x/demo/ethos/1/?s=themeco
If you could help me achieve something like that, I’d really appreciate it!
Hi @cryophobic,
Thanks for writing in and for the feedback. I will add this as a feature request. I can’t promise implementation or a timeline at this point, however, we do listen to our users and we’re always trying to improve. When we see something beneficial we do our best to make it happen. We’re actually working on a number of things so if this does get added to the pipeline, we’ll be sure to announce it when it’s ready. Thanks for understanding!
In the meantime you can send us your URL so we can take a look and see if there is anything we can do to improve your search page. Hope this helps – thanks!
This reply has been marked as private.Hi Ben,
Search template is only applicable for builtin post types that comes with X. Though I agree that product should have its own search result page, but that should be different since product post type different structure than the other post types. Hence, builtin search feature is not suitable for product searches. In fact there is a extension for that utilize the structure of a product and woocomemrce, like from here https://docs.woothemes.com/document/woocommerce-product-search/
And since woocommerce uses different templates, it has to be attached to search template too. And we can’t cover woocommerce template development this time. But as discussed above, I’ll just add this as a feature request 🙂 , we support can’t simply provide complete customisation from scratch.
Thanks for understanding.
Hello everyone.
I don’t know if I’m in the right place, but I can’t find an answer to a very silly question.I had to rebuild my category pages. At the same time, I had to recreate a page numbering to archive items in this category. (like this)
I would allow to return directly to the search engine by inserting a URL link on a text. (Insert in “…” in the bottom of this page http://reaphit.com/home/accueil/)
How can I find the URL of the search tool or how can easily redirect to the search function.While waiting for an answer, thank you again for all your services. 😉
