Search Box Acting Strange
3 replies · Started by Jason on October 20, 2020
Having some issues that may or may not be related to a new plugin I installed. I installed the Participant Database to create a game database for our site. I am trying to determine what the issue with the SORT field is. When I click on the ascending radio button it activates the Search Box on the GP theme. I have tried removing my cache plugin but to no avail. I can't figure out if this is a jscript or CSS conflict possibly causing an issue. Hoping you folks can at least point me in the right direction. Thanks!
Hi there,
the sort filter is also using the search-item class on its sort by select elements. Which is the class that GP uses for its Navigation Search.
Its not currently possible for us to filter our Javascript to change the search-item class to something else. So you would need to disable the navigation search. You could always hook in a different search widget into the nav.
The plugin developer should also note that the search-item class is used with the core WordPress search forms. Which means it may conflict with over types of search plugins. It might be something the plugin developer should change to make it specific to their needs.
Excellent thank you!
You're welcome
