RESOLVED: Search Filter isn't working

1

Using the Search Filter…and it isn’t working.

I can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. Any input in the search filter returns no results. This is on a very basic custom post type archive, with a simple loop.

I’ve connected the search filter to the loop on the page, and no matter what I search I always get no results. This is an archive page, but when append /s=whatever to the homepage search results work so I know the basic WP search is working. I don’t know why Bricks’ search filter is not. It does properly append to archive URL when I enter something so the URL becomes /something.com/library/s=search-target and the active filter appears.

I’ve double-checked my custom post type and have ensured that is not excluded from search.

Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

Hi @PrometheusFire ,

Did you tick “Is main query” on your query loop?

I can’t replicate this issue locally.

What is the URL to that archive page so I can check?

Regards,
Jenn

@itchycode That was exactly it!

I don’t recall seeing that in the documentation, but I do know that it is used to troubleshoot pagination. I appreciate the tip. That guidance solved my problem.

Thank you!
