    It may be that the theme is the problem. To set a simple test, duplicate the search form, with a testing name, set it to Display results method ‘Shortcode’. You will need to make a test page to place the form and results shortcodes on. The appearance is not important, only if it works.

    Who is the theme author? It is most likely in the way that the theme performs the WP Query, or uses pre_get_posts.

    You have the normal:

    if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();

    But where is the query performed, something like 

    $query = new WP_Query($args);

    See the WP Codex:

    Our plugin in the ‘As an Archive’ results display method, passes an argument to the query, but if the query is non-standard, or instead you might be using pre_get_posts, then it will not work. Only in the Shortcode method do we use our own wp_query.
