Dear Trevor
As I was looking for different solutions, when you visited the site, changes had been made.
I had understood that IDs had to be the same…
Despite corrections, Visual Search did not work.
As my theme (mh-magazine) seems to have conflits with Ajax, I tried to combine different ways.
The one I found working was:
1) create a new search form (ID 1270) with displaying method set to: As an archive”
2) to disable Ajax for this search form
3) to copy the search.php of my theme to /search-filter/1270.php with some arrangements that I will improve next time
I keep in mind the idea to combine S&F with Post Grid (VP Bakery add-on) or Post Grid (plugin), but I have to add content during summer time.
Thank you very much for your help and BRAVO for your product which is (despite my questions) very efficient.
All my best
Pascal
