Override the default search template and use woocommerce archive-product.php

[David]

Hi,

how can I override the default GeneratePress search template and use WooCommerce archive-product.php template?

I want to make search results look like categories archive pages.

Thank you.

Hi there,

Try this PHP snippet:

This only adds &post_type=product to GET request. So my URL after search contains .../?s=whattosearch&product_type=product but I need to change the whole layout of search results page and make it look products categories archives.

Hi there,

instead of using the Search Widget – use the Product Search Widget.

Hi there,

You may have a plugin or custom function preventing the default functionality.

For example, here’s one of our Site Library sites: https://gpsites.co/merch/?s=ninja&post_type=product

Hello,

thank you Tom! It was caused by Disable Blog plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/disable-blog/).

Have a nice day.
