Search results do not appear on a specific page

Are you trying it with ‘As an Archive’?

That page code you show does not actually show the wp_query, but just contains the loop. To me, that suggests using the Shortcode method would at least tell if results can be found, then it is just a matter of styling and additional/different content fields.

Thank you very much for your quick response.

Yes, I was trying it as “an archive” and this way the results do not appear and I´ve forgot to mention that using the “shortcode” works fine within the colormag theme, I`ve already tried it.

So what is your suggestion? – To apply the “shortcode” method and then to adapt the search-form and result-output to the theme? Or what do you mean with “[…]then it is just a matter of styling and additional/different content fields.”?

My thought was, that if I use the the “as an archive” mehtod i can get the results in the same style like the archive.

If you are up for it (or have a code editor with a recursive search), you need to find the theme file with the wp_query in it. We might be able to address the problem that way. But using Shortcode removes that issue. I have usually found a way to help users clone the site appearance with the shortcode method.
