WAIT: Search Filter Doesn't read URL Parameter

[dailce]

I’m using the search filter with the following details:

On my site I have a simple search form:

<form method="get" class="form-search" action="/page1/">
<input type="search" class="search-field"  placeholder="Search Products" name="_product_search">    
<button class="search-submit" type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

It almost works, when I submit the search, it directs to the correct page the URL is

.com/page/?_product_search=test

But it doesn’ show any results, if I manually press ENTER on the url of the browser then _product_search does take NOT effect either!

Is this a bug or am I missing something here?

EDIT: Here is a screenshot, I have the proper url but the result show:

If I enter “test” via the filter the proper result shows.

EDIT UPDATE: I disabled Relevanssi Search and it’s now ok, but I need to have Relevanssi ACTIVE. Please advise.

Thanks.

I did testing. If I keep my bricks URL search parameter as “s” it works. but the bricks options says “Define a unique, more readable URL parameter name for this filter.” I’m not sure is there a way to define a unique bricks parameter here and then do I try to update the “s” in WP? Or is there some other filter that can be used?

Hi @dailce ,

Based on your screenshot, the parameter is taking effect and so the search input and active filter showing “test”

If the query is not having a result, please check if you have any third-party filter plugin installed that could conflict with Bricks.

Otherwise, please send admin credentials to help@bricksbuilder.io (Include this thread URL as reference) so we can check.

Regards,
Jenn

Relevanssi Search seems to be hijacking the search query, the workaround is to use “s” as the search parameter, which isn’t ideal I don’t think…

I FOUND A FIX: this will allow you to continue to use the Brickbuilder filter, and prevent Relevanssi from taking over:

add_filter( 'bricks/posts/query_vars', function( $query_vars, $settings, $element_id ) {
	if ( $element_id === '56f380' ) {  //the brick query loop element
		
		remove_filter( 'posts_request', 'relevanssi_prevent_default_request' ); //interferese with bricks search filter parameter
		//remove_filter( 'posts_pre_query', 'relevanssi_query', 99 );
		
		add_filter( 'relevanssi_orderby', function( $orderby ) { return 'menu_order'; } ); //should match bricks query menu order 
		add_filter( 'relevanssi_order', function( $order ) { return 'asc'; } );
		$query_vars['relevanssi'] = true; //APPLY relevanssi to the bricks ajax search  see: https://www.relevanssi.com/user-manual/using-relevanssi-outside-search-pages/
  
		//print( '<pre>' . print_r( $query_vars, true ) . '</pre>' );
	}

	return $query_vars;
}, 10, 3 );
