    Hi
    Is there any way to add a search&filter form to the blog template, so it appears on individual posts? The shortcode method requires a url, so I assume it won’t work?
    Thanks

    You can put the form on any page in a variety of ways:

    1. In a widget area.
    2. In a page editor or a page builder text or code module.
    3. In a template file as a PHP do_shortcode function.

    Where the results appear depends on the Display Results method chosen.

    Ok great – what url would I supply in the ‘results url’ field?
    Thanks

    If you are using the Shortcode Display results method, you need to make a page in WordPress for the results and supply that page URL to the form setting. On that page you will probably want both the form and results shortcodes, as per our documentation here:

    But if I am adding it to the posts template, I will not have a single url to supply – it will differ with each post published

    You want the search results on each single post page?
