Custom search result page assign category

[VRANKOVINA]

I designed my custom search result page via the “archive” method as recommended here:

Customizing the "search" result page

Question Nr.1.: Is there a way how to create a custom search result page with cornerstone? Or do I really need to create my own template? Question Nr. 2: Is there a way how to filter a looper after all elements were loaded? Example: You have a page with lot of links to pdf documents. Like a lot. Listing all those documents with a looper works like a charm. Having more than 30 on the page is not consumer friendly though. It would be great to provide some kind of a filter and this way limit the …

How can I add a category to the archive?
Reason: I use custom headers which use category for their location. Pages with category A display header A and pages with category B display header B.

Is it possible to have multiple search result pages based on from where the search was initiated?
Example:
Pages for language A have their own custom header including a search button. The results should be displayed on an according language A result page.
And then there are language B pages with language B custom header with another search button.

Both searches call the same result page (archive) for the moment. I have to change that.

Hello @VRANKOVINA,

Thanks for writing in!

You will have to pass a parameter so that the Search Result archive layout will know which page it came from. Please check out this reference URL:

• Add query string params/arguments to any WordPress URL (Example) (coderwall.com)

You can use the URL parameter in your condition to display which header should be displayed.

Hope this makes sense.
