    Hello,

    We’ve implemented S&F on a website. We’ve configured a form as the standard search:

    http://www.agro-chemie.nl/zoeken

    Is there an option or another way to change the title on this page? Now it seems to default to the page for posts. In our case that page is titled ‘Blogs’, which is not the title we want..

    Thanks in advance!
    -Kevin

    It is happening because your theme is making this the body tag:

    <body class="blog group-blog hfeed colors-light search search-results">

    The theme uses the blog class to decide this is a blog page. The first thing to try is in the Advanced Settings of the plugin, try the force is_archive is true setting.

    I’ve tried to force is_search and is_archive to always be true, but there’s no change in the page title.

    When I look at the body classes, it still has the ‘blog’ class. Is that normal behaviour?

    It rather depends on the theme. Are you using the As an Archive display results method and is the template file selected search.php and if so are you using a child theme?

    Settings are:

    – Display results method: As an Archive
    – Custom template: search.php
    – We are using a child theme

    If you look inside the search.php template file, is there any obvious call to print out the title etc?

    It may be possible to copy this file to a new name (e.g. search-result.php) and put that in the child theme folder and tell the search form to use that instead.

    Not really.

    We use get_header(), the real page title is printed there via wp_head().

    I guess the best way to do this, is to use something like this:

    
/**
 * Modify the document title for the search page
 */
add_filter( 'document_title_parts', function( $title )
{
    if ( is_search() ) 
        $title['title'] = sprintf( 
            esc_html__( '“%s” result page', 'my-theme-domain' ), 
            get_search_query() 
        );

    return $title;
} );

    It’s not really variable, but it works!

    Indeed, if there is no other way, then that would work.
