Search result page not even

Hi there,

What is the number set for the Blog pages show at most setting in WP readings setting?

14, Leo.

So sounds like setting it to 15 might work better?

Or any numbers that's multiple of 3.

but then the front page would look crooked. But I think I got the issue now. Maybe I should change the search result page to 4-columns?

Nope, 4- or five-column search result also has the same issue... looks like the only way is to use the search result with the same format as the front page or any archive page.

Try this snippet to change the posts per page setting in the search result page:

add_action( 'pre_get_posts', function( $query ) {
    if ( ! is_admin() && $query->is_main_query() ) {
        if ( is_search() ) {
            $query->set( 'posts_per_page', 15 );
        }
    }
} );

Got it. Thanks, Leo.

No problem :)
