Posts Widget - Style Taxonomies, Default Filter

[Patric]

Hi Bloom

it is possible. We can use the Bricks Posts widget for our case.

Here is the way how it can be done. Maybe there are even better / easier ways, but this one works:

1. If not already done, add in your header template the standard Bricks Search widget. I used the input type search field.

2. If not already done, create the Search Results Template in Bricks.

3. You can add / design the Search Results Template page however you want, BUT in minimum, it needs to have this structure:

I add the Bricks Post Widget but I do not make any changes or adjust anything in the query settings of the post widget, I leave everything the way it is:

4. The Facet in the structure is the WPGridbuilder Facet. You can add here your desired facets.

In the Facet settings, when you click on “Select a grid or element…” you should see the Bricks posts widget as a selection.

5. Now, when you enter something in the search widget in the header of a page, the Search Results Template Page is called and the WPgridbuilder Facets are working.

Note: There are a few discussions in the Bricks forum about the Bricks search widget and its results…

Relevanssi + Bricks compatibility issue, not showing custom excerpts

No I haven’t solved it yet, so far I have postponed trying to find a solution but will have to do so soon. Please let me know if you figure out something of help.

Bricksbuilder + Relevanssi

So I am slowly moving forward in my custom search integration using the recommended Relevanssi – A Better Search – WordPress plugin | WordPress.org I got it so far that my custom search page template shows the search results. Here is my problem: so far it only shows me the titles of the search results, I think that Relevanssi generates an excerpt of the search result internally, however I have no idea on how to display that. I have a “Posts” element on my custom search result page and there I …

It seems that the search widget is not always finding all results from custom post types. If you have this issue, maybe it helps to first look at the query details, you can do it like this:

Why Search Results page is not showing the Search Result: (The User Query)

Hello! I was trying to make a search results page, but when I search for something, the header title doesn’t say “Your Search Result for ‘User Query’”. Also, only the first item is relevant to the search results and the rest of the items are not relevant. Here is the video of my problem: Thank you

I personally don’t use the Bricks search widget and I also don’t use the search results page. I use my own Ajax search form.

But maybe you first start and then see how far you get with your search results.
