    Hi,

    I’m having a problem with the search results that I just can’t work out.

    I’ve added our own search results template, and have applied a ‘clear: left’ css command to every even DIV, so that they always appear in columns of two.

    However, tags are getting added, and I can’t see from where. It seems to be throwing the ordering out of kilter.

    Are you displaying results with shortcode?

    There is a bug in the sample results template – you will that there are some <p> tags that are not closed properly </p>.. this is fixed in the next update.

    Thanks

    Yes, displaying with the shortcode.

    Thanks – I look forward to the next update,
    thanks

    Hi,

    I’ve downloaded and installed the latest update, and everything seems to work, but the problem I previously had persists.

    To clarify, it’s not the <p> tag which is causing a problem, but rather an extra tag which seems to creep in amongst occasional posts, and through the ordering out.

    Here’s the page it’s happening on:
    http://mytheatremates.com/news-reviews-and-features/?sf_paged=2

    (although site is constantly updated, so may need to scroll to older posts to see the problem).

    You’ll see that every ‘even’ div is set to clear: left. But then an extra tag surrounds the 10th or div or later, and doesn’t get closed, which means that the next div is the first in that section, and therefore the numbering is reset – and clear: left doesn’t apply in order anymore.

    Here’s the code of the edited template file we’ve created. We’ve not used tags anywhere, so I can’t see where they’re creeping in.

    Can you advise?

    thanks

    Tim

    Hi Tim

    CAn you paste your code somewhere more readable like pastebin?

    Thanks

    Sure, here we go

    I see an error here:

    echo '<p>';
    the_post_thumbnail("small");
    echo '</a></p>';

    The anchor tag is not closed, but just checking the S&F template I can see this error is not there:

    if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) {
    echo '<p>';
    the_post_thumbnail("small");
    echo '</p>';
    }

    Thanks

    Thanks.

    I’ve corrected that double closing </a>, but the problem persists.

    Here’s the corrected code:
    http://pastebin.com/LCpUxVJd

    (You’ll see the <a></a> just surrounds the image)

    The problem, which you can see on this page:
    http://mytheatremates.com/news-reviews-and-features/?sf_paged=3
    (Weekly Theatre Podcast post)

    is the erroneous tag that opens and is never closed.

    thanks

    Tim

    I can see that your <p> tags around the image are not properly opened and closed

    You open the <p> inside the <a> but the close it outside the </a>

    This is not really a S&F issue anymore, if you default to the supplied results.php in the S&F template folder (of the plugin) do you see any out of place <p> tags?
