AnsPress Plugin – Search results page
Hi,
Is it possible specify a ‘search results’ page? I have selected all the other pages I want to use (AnsPress – Options – Pages) but there is not option for the ‘search results’ page.
At present the search results are displayed on the default WP page template (which isn’t styled the same as my generated / designed pages) and it using the default sidebar widgets. Ideally I would like the search results page to look like my other designed pages.
Is it possible to specify a saved page to display the search results?
With thanks
The only way to “control” it is to use Template Override. Go to the space waves plugins folder, find the AnsPress search.php file, and copy it to the anspress folder in your theme. Inside, you can edit the HTML, change the layout, or add any custom sidebar you want without worrying about losing code when updating the plugin.
Hello,
Add below code to you theme functions.php:
function my_question_search( $template ) {
global $wp_query;
$post_type = get_query_var('post_type');
if ( $wp_query->is_search && $post_type == 'question' ) {
return locate_template( 'search-question.php' );
}
return $template;
}
add_filter( 'template_include', 'my_question_search' );
Add to theme’s functions.php
Hi, I also had the same issue. When I search something, it redirects to the default wordpress search page. After that when I choose any category, it redirects to the homepage.
I added the code in the functions.php. But it is not working.
What I want:
I need the search results to be display in the same page.
Hi Rahul. Wow your answer was fast 🙂
Do I just add the code as it is? Or do I need to edit / update it to specify which page to display the ‘search results’?
