    Hello,

    Just bought the plugin, the search form I’ve created sends to “WEBSITE/?sfid=2569&s=iphone”

    whereas it needs to go to “WEBSITE/?s=iphone&post_type=product” in order to come out in a grid like my theme does currently.

    Is there any way to do this? (basically it needs the &post_type=product for some reason).

    Many thanks

    Jonathan

    (p.s. I guess it can have the sfid=XXX stuff in there too, shouldn’t do any harm)

    Hi Jonathan

    You can’t add on custom parameters to the URL – the parameters are used by Search & Filter for searching…

    What is likely happening is somewhere in your template there is a check something like:

    if($post_type=="product")
{
    //display grid
}

    So you could add in an additional check:

    global $sf_form_data;
if (($post_type=="product")||($sf_form_data->is_valid_form()))
{

}

    However it make look different in your theme.

    Thanks
