Search-releated issues: Not sorting and not eliminating pages

Hello!

I’m having issues formatting the search results page. https://nordsip.com/?tdb-loop-orderby=alphabetical_order&s=plastics

1) The “Flexloop” sorting option doesn’t work. As you can see with the link above, this should be sorted from A-Z but it isn’t.

2) If I set up the post loop to be sorted as “-latest-” it doesn’t work. I need to select the “latest modified” to work in a somewhat chronological order.

3) How can I make sure that pages don’t get included in the search results? I have set up the search function by clicking on the “exclude pages” options but as you can see if you click on the link above, the home page and some other pages show up at the top.

Hello!

Please edit the page with the tagdiv Composer and add a Flex Block with the filter Search: Current Search and check if it works. I’ve tested the latest update, and it seems to work well, especially the posts loop and flex block shortcodes.
You can also set in the post type: post.

Thank you!

Great! If I add “post” then it seems to work. However, I’m now going to switch to the Flex Block instead, as you suggested, as I can add the Ajax categories dropdown which is useful!

Thanks a lot for your answer.

Hi again, I’ve now tried with the Flex Block and the pages do appear again, so I’m going to stick to the Post Loop with “posts” in the Post Type field. That appears to do the trick.
