No permalink in search results url

It’s intended.

https://bavotasan.com/2011/rewrite-search-result-url-for-wordpress/

Is there some reason for this?

And can it be bypassed without problems?

In the link you provide it is suggested to if you enter in your address bar “https://your-site.com/search/the”, you will land at the search page for word “the”.

In my site I get redirected to the home page.

Also, trying to correct the search results link through the search_link filter of the get_search_link() function has no effect.

By the way, the get_search_link() function returns the correct url (“https://your-site.com/search/the”). Probably there is some redirect or rewrite in place.

So the method suggested in the link does not work anymore.

Anything else that could be done?
