Are you using Elementor Pro? If you are, are you using our extension for Elementor Pro, which can be installed after clicking the big blue button (you need to be logged in to see it) at the top of the guide page (to download the installation file):
https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/3rd-party/elementor/
The guide covers many different use cases (including the Archive Posts and Archive Products widgets), so please read it carefully.
Are you following this guidance:
https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/3rd-party/dynamic-content-elementor/
The page must be a real page in WordPress, and not a library link, so the Results URL in the form must be the real URL for the page (and not the link you provided).
As you are using Elementor Pro, and you should be using our extension for Elementor Pro, which can be installed after clicking the big blue button (you need to be logged in to see it) at the top of the guide page (to download the installation file):
https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/3rd-party/elementor/
I assume you are not using this extension, as the form is using the Custom display method (which our old implementation method used to use, along with some JavaScript which is not now required)
In the main, this works with another custom skin plugin (Ele Custom Skins), as that plugin sill uses the Posts widget, but adds extra skins that you design.
Doing the pagination from code is unlikely to work though.

Hi,
I have an Elementor website with Dynamic.ooo and CPT.
I have been trying to set up a simple site search without success. I have followed the documentation, both for DPV2 and for the native elementor widgets. No matter what I do, the results I get for any query I are random and do not match the query.
Currently, I have disabled all unnecessary plugins on my website and have a search form set to search a CPT and display method set to: Post Type Archive, without ajax and with “Sort Results By relevance?” checked.

What am I doing wrong?
Thanks,

Hi ross,
Thanks for your reply,
Sorry i gave you the wrong url – its http://www.legendary-models.com/shop-2
The shop page you looked at was elementor, but now i am wanting to use normal wordpress shop page.
Thanks
Hi Robert
2 things I can see:
1) https://legendary-models.com/shop/
This page has a form, that has the setting enable on taxonomy archives
, which means, when you change the brand (Marque) the page will try to goto:
https://legendary-models.com/product-category/brand/benetton-brand/
Take a look at this link, you will see it does not have a search form – all you need to do, is make sure your product category/tag/attribute archives are setup properply (same structure as the shop) and then ajax can work between them
2) Are you using our Elementor extension? https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/3rd-party/elementor/
This might help auto configure some additional settings for ajax
Thanks

Hi,
The search and filter is visible on my website at http://www.legendary-models.com/shop.
I want to make it so on mobile the filters display horizontally and on tablets and desktops – vertically in side bar (as it is at the moment)
I was thinking to create 2 search and filter forms, but how would i hide one on mobile and show…vice versa.
I am using wordpress/elementor.
Please advise,
Thanks
I made this change for you:

It should work better now. I really would use the Elementor Pro extension though.
Ah, if you have Elementor Pro, then you could use our extension for Elementor Pro, which can be installed after clicking the big blue button (you need to be logged in to see it) at the top of the guide page (to download the installation file):
https://searchandfilter.com/documentation/3rd-party/elementor/
If you do not have Elementor Pro, then that solution I proposed (no need for the above mentioned extension for Pro) is a good.
Do let me know how you get on.

Thanks I’ll give that a try! I’m using Elementor Page builder.
