Header will not come up on search result page

[artistn8]

I am working in pro. I have set a header as Global, and the default headers continue to come up for search results regardless of what I do. This has been a problem all day.

Hello @artistn8,

Thanks for writing in! Please set a smaller priority number to your custom header to make sure that the custom header will always display sitewide.

Could you explain how priority works for headers and footers?

Hello @artistn8,

To assign the Header/Footer to any page posts etc you need to set the conditions and you need to set the Priority. By default the Priority is 0 in case it is not working you may set the Priority is -5 or -20 to higher the priority

Hope it helps
Thanks

It worked once and then back to default. I have created a menu that is -20 and should come up when Search Results are being viewed and it is still giving me the default system header.

Hi @artistn8,

In that case, we need to investigate the settings made for the header assignment. Please provide login credentials for your site in a secure note to examine it further, including:

– WordPress Site URL and Login URL
– WordPress Admin username and password
– Specific Header for Search page

To create a secure note, click the key icon underneath any of your posts.

Thanks

I appreciate the help.

Hi @artistn8,

I have checked and found that the Yoast SEO: Local plugin is the reason behind your issue. I have deactivated it temporarily and now the header and footer are working.
Please remember that we don’t provide any support to the 3rd Party plugins or related issues.

Thanks
