Hello everyone,
I just bought the plugin because after some search I was 90% sure that it would fit my needs. I just need a search bar with category and tag checkboxes. From the design aspect I set it up pretty easily but I the results are not displayed when I use the checkboxes. I do not have the time to figure it out, and I am sorry for not having done a serious search and read before I post. I can provide any info on a dev to help me out. Thank you and have a good day.

Just to update. I managed to get the results to display. My problem now is that the search box, category checkbox and tag checkbox are displayed in the vertically and not horizontally. Any help would be appreciated.

So after some search yesterday, I’ve managed to do the basics, but the results less that they should be. I believe I have to do some hand coding on my theme, which I am not capable of at the time being.
To sum up: I need the category checkbox and tag ckechbox to be displayed vertically, and I need the result page to include every result that matches my search. Please contact me for more info, I really need this feature.
I use the Avada 4.0.3 theme.

Hi

Search this form for the keyword horizontal to find many examples of custom css, OR …

Show me the page where this is being used and a screenshot of roughly how it needs to look, and I will write the code.

If you have no means of placing custom css in the theme, use the really Simple Custom CSS plugin.

This is the page that is being used: http://hearthstonepuzzles.net/fan-creations-test-page/

The way I would like the “search and filter” form to look is to have search, categories and tabs, in 3 different columns (horizontal display. Sorry for the mistype above).

My main problem right now is that the results are not showing. They are much less that they should be, considering the amount of posts each category has (abilities/spells , minions, weapons). I changed the search-filter.php as it says on the faq and now I see some results (previously I saw nothing), but I believe that the query issue is not solved. You can check this by clicking one of the checkboxes (abilities/spells, minions), on this page http://hearthstonepuzzles.net/fan-creations-test-page/ and press submit. I can give you any credentials you need through my e-mail.
Thank you in advance Mr. Trevor.

I solved the issue with the horizontal align with css. Now my problem is the results page, as mentioned above. I cannot see all of my posts when clicking and searching a specific category (abilities/spells,minions,weapons) through the checkbox.

Hi George

I made a few changes, but the issue is your settings in the Tags, Categories & Taxonomies tab of the form. By including 3 categories only AND 3 tags only, ONLY posts that have one of those categories AND one of the tags will be shown. That narrows the posts down a lot.

You had, for categories: 139,124,140

and for tags: 150,149,144

I removed these and showed the counts on the form.

How can you restrict the shown options then? In taxonomies (categories and tags), you can’t. If you make custom fields with ACF, you CAN make a manual list of shown options.
