    If you are using the Shortcode results method, and our results.php template file, it would look like this:

    global $searchandfilter;
$sf_current_query = $searchandfilter->get(1024)->current_query();
if ((!$sf_current_query->is_filtered())&&($sf_current_query->get_search_term()=="")) {
  echo '<div>Nothing to see here folks!</div>'; 
} else {
  // your template archive code/loop OR results.php code here
}

    Change 1024 to the ID number of your form (from the form shortcode).

    Hi – yes, using standard shortcodes – so, I need to edit the results.php template as above to make it work as we need do I?

    Yes. The guide to customising is here:
