    If I search for something that do not exist in my catalog, presently on the ‘nothing found’ page I get just the titles for all my taxonomies (since the filter is configured for dynamic recount). Wondering if this could be overridden to automatically reset the filter on the empty results page? The same way it resets on the individual post pages? Thanks!

    I am not sure that is easily possible. However, what you could do is use one of our filters to reset the query, after first checking that the post count is 0, but then what you would get is the user not seeing that there were no results and instead seeing all posts.

    I do not think that would be desirable. I think the current WordPress standard, to ask the user to start again (or in this case to press the Reset button), is the only option.

    Ok, thanks

    Is there an option to disable to filter on that one page then? Since, now all the users see is the list of taxonomy headers with no options underneath, so they can’t really do anything with the filter anyway.

    Not really, no, as the results (when there are some) are displayed by the same code. You just need to make sure that you have a Reset button.
