Hi Andrew
You shouldn’t set the S&F slug to be the same as an archive URL – I suspect this could cause some issues.
It should be a unique slug in your site.
RE the loop, it should be fine, well, you will always need a loop to display results – but I guess it depends on your template.
If you’re using archive display method, the loop should follow the standard WP loop – so take a look here:
https://codex.wordpress.org/The_LoopBasically it should have the standard
have_posts()
etc.This should not be the same as when using the shortocode method to display results (this method uses its own queries, so the code looks a little different).
Let me know how you get on.
Thanks
Anonymous(Private) January 2, 2016 at 6:03 pm #33155I tried setting a different URL, but its not actually using what i set the slug to. Only one of the categories actually changes the results when hitting submit. If i manually type in the Search bar and hit submit whatever result Post comes up first gets displayed over and over and none of the others do (this also happens when selcting all categories). Ive tried lots of different settings, nothing is working. I really feel we could solve this if setup a time to Skype and screenshare, or any other communication program. I can do it at whatever time is convenient to you.

Ok so I’ve noticed a potential issue.
Are you using WPML? Because S&F is not correctly configured with WPML this may be causing some of your issues:
Can you follow the instructions and let me know when complete?
