    Search result shows as summary of posts. I would like to show full content of post. How can I change this?

    Which Display Results method are you using?

    Shortcode.

    You will need to follow these customisation instructions:

    https://www.designsandcode.com/documentation/search-filter-pro/search-results/using-a-shortcode/#Customising_the_Results

    Then you edit the results.php file you have copied, find this code block:

    <p><br /><?php the_excerpt(); ?></p>

    and replace it with this:

    <div><?php the_content(); ?></div>

    Note that you can edit this file quite extensively to add, modify PHP, HTML and CSS selectors.

    Hi Trevor,

    Thanks for your prompt response. Is there anywhere that I can overwrite CSS code?

    Normally you can change the appearance by editing the results.php file and adding your own theme’s CSS selectors and HTML structure.

    What theme are you using?

    Or, do you refer to the CSS of the form?

    If so, then you must write your own custom CSS. There are many such snippets on this forum.

    Hi Trever,

    For Display results, I am using Post Type Archive or Custom. How can I add a search form on the result page? Only way, I can display both result and search form was using the shortcode. I am sure I am missing something.

    Hi Trever,

    The problem with using shortcode to display the result is that I get limited layout choice. See link below for a screenshot.

    When I change the display setting to “Post Type Archive”, I get the same layout for the theme (I am using Avada theme) and I prefer this layout. But as you can see the screenshot below link, I don’t know how to display the search form.
