Wordpress 5.9 Update - Search Results

Support
#1

Since the last Wordpress 5.9 Update, in searches the site is not only displaying the expected page but also results that correlate with past updates of that page, or past updates of a number of pages. For each page update, a ‘pseudo’ search result is displayed. When clicking on such a search result corresponding to a page update, the site responds with “The page you are looking for is no longer here…” How can those improper search results be eliminated?

Hello @hwmalawi,

Thanks for writing to us.

Thanks for writing to us.

It might be the issue of version compatibility. Please make sure your theme, plugins, WordPress, and the PHP version are updated as per our version compatibility page. I would suggest you please purge all the cache. I would suggest you troubleshoot with a few of the common issues before we investigate your settings.

  1. Testing For Theme Related Issue
  2. Testing For Plugin Conflict
  3. Theme Update
  4. Child Theme
  5. Css/Js Customization
  6. Disabling Cache
  7. Disabling Cdn
  8. Permalinks
  9. Version Compatibility

If it doesn’t work for you, please share your details in a secure note. Please provide the following details

  • WordPress Login URL
  • Admin level username and password

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