    When you open the page that the shortcodes are on, before you use the form to search and/or filter the results, do any posts show at this point, or does the page contain only the search form?

    When i open the page, I get all the results.

    I guess there might be a problem with the search operators :
    -I have set up and AND relationship between the criteria.
    -When I select a search term alone, there are no results.
    -When I type the same search term field and select a category (dropdown list), it works fine.

    Thanks,
    Olivier

    Can you give me a live url to the page? You can do this in a private reply if you wish.

    Hi

    I can see the behavior that you describe. Something very odd going on. Can I have admin access to the form?

    Hi

    I can sort of see what is happening the page that the search is on uses the theme’s single.php template file, and that in turn calls in the theme’s content files. In there, the code is over-riding the Search and Filter results shortcode. Without significant coding, it means that the shortcode method cannot be used in your theme.

    This means that you must use either the archives method or the post archives. In the way you are using it, I suspect that the archives method is the only viable option.
