CS Forms Search Input AJAX Filtering Not Working

Support
#1

Howdy,

Using the new CS Forms, I am able to get filtering of my blog index and CPT Archives to work great with checkbox lists. However, when I add an input to the form and set it up as a search input, it doesn’t work.

The search acts like it’s updating, with the Loading Area element doing its thing, but the post list doesn’t actually change.

Can you provide an overview of what’s needed for that to work?

The most recent video shows this being added, but it doesn’t show it working, which leads me to believe maybe there is an additional step I haven’t figured out yet. https://youtu.be/bKhSjhde-zg?si=i28Zd230vTIAJ7cJ

Thank you

Hey Gary,

You might have missed something. Since the setup is in Cornerstone, please provide the following info in a Secure Note.

  • Page URL where we can see the issue
  • WordPress Login URL
  • Admin level username and password

You can find the Secure Note button at the bottom of your posts.

Sounds good; the secure note has been added to my original post above.

Hey Gary,

The search query string is not recognized by WordPress. WordPress uses s. I tested using s and it works.
