    Yeah sure fire over the necessary details and I’ll take a look – won’t be for a couple of days now thought as I’m pushing through an update tomorrow hopefully which will probably have a small amount of fallout in terms of support and bug fixes but I’ll definitely get on to it 🙂

    Thanks

    Ross, please I would really need some guidance from you.
    I don’t know if I understad this correctly, but what might solve all of the issues is this (if this plugin allows this):

    In plugin settings not using the “Use a custom template for results?” at all. So it doesn’t use the results.php file.

    In the AJAX section not ticking the option “Use a Shortcode to display results?”

    And choosing the right “Content selector:” – this is what I do not know how to do to make it work.
    If this is the way to get the filtered results this would be the ultimate solution.
    Please help, thanks

    Hi,

    I also cannot make the Ajax results page look good. I would like to have the basic layout in the “results.php” to be the same as in the normal archive/search pages in my theme, but I cannot make copying elements from the theme’s search.php work at all.

    Without Ajax it works fine and I have read the short toturial text without any success when it comes to making the styling look like the rest of the theme.

    Can you help me out?

    Ross, I stil couldn’t find a solution, to make the plugin working (using a shortcode is not a preffered option), I would really appreciate if you could take a look what could be the case.

    I also wanted to update the plugin to the new version if this might help and couldn’t either, I saved the licence key in settings and I can’t seem to find a way to update the plugin.

    Thanks

    Hey Marjan

    I made a little test (link in next message)

    I think this is what you are after??

    To make customisations to the results, edit the file – wp-content/themes/theme-name/search-filter/results.php

    But I think this almost looks right?

    I’ll explain what I did (I am not familiar with ultimatum theme):

    1. Create a new page
    2. Create a page template just for this page in your theme folder (search-page.php)
    3. Set the page template of this page to the new one “S&F Search Page” (http://codex.wordpress.org/Page_Templates#Custom_Page_Template)
    4. Load a regular page (to get the styling), and view html source
    5. Copy over the basic structure of this page – just the main content area and sidebar in to the custom page template
    6. Then add the two shortcodes
      • in the main content area I added [searchandfilter id="949" show="results"]
      • in the sidebar area I added [searchandfilter id="949"]

    Then basically the page is done! I don’t know if there is a better way to do it using Ultimatum I haven’t used it before.

    So now you can edit the layout of the results – but it looks very close to the original!

    🙂
