Submit button and search results page

Anonymous

Hi,

I have 2 questions:

1. I set up my form and have a submit button at the bottom of it. If I use the checkboxes that I have in my form, it takes me to another page with the results, before I had a chance to click the submit button. What can I change to allow the user to select all the check buttons they want and having it not do anything until they click “submit”

2. Conversely, if I don’t want to use a search button, but just allow the user to use the filters to change what is displayed on the page, can that be set up? So, I want the filters and the filtered results to stay on the same page.

Thanks!

Hi Chrissy

To answer your questions:

1) This is the “auto submit” setting in the “general” tab. Disable it if you want the user to press submit.

2) From what you are describing, I think this is possible, but there are certain considerations – it sounds like you want to use the shortcode display method, but check out the caveats and other options here:

Great, thanks for the reply! Is there a way to limit how many results you have displaying per page?

Thanks!
