"No Results" – Response

Anonymous

#158554

Hi,

we are using search filter pro on an category-archive page. Everything works fine except one thing: When no results are matching the given filters, it is loading for an eternity and the ajax-response is empty. Nothing changes on the former results, no message that says that there are no results matching the criteria appears.

Could you provide us some help?

Best regards
Adrian

Are you able to send me a live link/URL to your search page so I can take a look?

Hi

I can see that you are using the ‘As an Archive’ method, which relies on your theme template file, which you will have specified.

As the Ajax refresh is looking for a container with the ID of article_container, the template must have its ‘No Results Found` message inside a same named container, which means you would have to edit the template file. To do that safely, you must be working with a child theme and have the edited file in the child theme folder.

You are opening the Ajax container outside the start of the IF:

echo '<div id="article_container">';
if (have_posts()) { ?>

But then you end it INSIDE the IF and echo the HTML content there:

}// end while
$html_content .='</div>'; //article-container
echo $html_content; ?>

<?php } else { ?>
<!– Why we never come here?! –>
<?php echo 'no-results'; ?>
<?php } // endif; ?>

Instead try this (but keep a copy of your code):

}// end while

<?php } else { ?>
<!– Why we never come here?! –>
<?php $html_content = 'no-results'; ?>
<?php } // endif; ?>
$html_content .='</div>'; //article-container
echo $html_content; ?>

And, strictly speaking, this line:

echo '<div id="article_container">';

Should be:

$html_content = '<div id="article_container">';

I think.

I wonder. You are constructing the html before you output the form and ajax container, but that part does not get output again.

Instead of adding each part to the $html_content string, why not echo it directly?
