Hello! I’m using the Search and Filter Pro plugin and am trying to have the search results from the plugin display using the template I’ve set for the sitewide search results [a Cloud Template]. I tried adding the tdb_view_search.php to the child theme and then setting that as the results page in the plugin but it broke the site. I also tried using the archive.php page just to see what would happen and that also broke the site. So far the only thing that doesn’t break the site is the default search.php but that isn’t the layout my client would like to use. Can you please give me some guidance on how I might add the custom theme to the Child theme to achieve the results layout that the clients wants [basically Module 16]? Thank you for your help!
Hi KD,
The child theme can be use only for the theme and standard templates, if you chose to use cloud templates, these can not be set in a child theme, these are stored in database.
Also I do not know how Search and Filter Pro plugin should work, but I think it can work only with standard search (wp-content/plugins/td-standard-pack/Newspaper/search.php this one can be set in child theme -> https://i.imgur.com/9GQzHhb.png) not with cloud search templates.
Thank you!
Sure! For the S&F Pro plugin results page, you have to choose the layout option you want to use in the Newspaper Theme Panel and then you must also be sure to untoggle “Use Custom Template for Results” on the S&F Display Results tab. After I did that it worked perfectly. Good luck!
