Hey thanks, that’s an interesting idea.

Would that work as well in our case? I have a form already that is pulling in the data.

I don’t think it makes sense to have two forms right?

Can I have 1 search query search another form?

(I.e. can i have the main search query [searchandfilter id=”87″] do the main search on the page and another search query e.g. [searchandfilter id=”88″] with just the search form, go to the same results as [searchandfilter id=”87″]? )

thanks,
How would I set that up on the backend?
I created a new search [searchandfilter id=”713″] but when i try to change the results shortcode to ’87’ it just changes back.

How do i tell it to display the other results?

Thanks for the response, but now I’m confused.

Sorry.

If we arent using the results, then how does it know where to display them?
How does it know where to go?

If I understand correctly, I should place <?php echo do_shortcode([searchandfilter id=”713″]); ?> where the wordpress search currently is. (actually do i just replace the whole thing starting from the form role=”search”, or just something inside it?) But then how does it know to display the results of the ’87’ search? How do i point it there?

This is the search currently:

<div class=”et_search_outer”>
<div class=”container et_search_form_container”>
<form role=”search” method=”get” class=”et-search-form” action=”<?php echo esc_url( home_url( ‘/’ ) ); ?>”>
<?php
printf( ‘<input type=”search” class=”et-search-field” placeholder=”%1$s” value=”%2$s” name=”s” title=”%3$s” />’,
esc_attr__( ‘Search …’, ‘Divi’ ),
get_search_query(),
esc_attr__( ‘Search for:’, ‘Divi’ )
);
?>
</form>
<span class=”et_close_search_field”></span>
</div>
</div>
