Site goes haywire after Search

  • Hi,
    I just started using WordPress and I must say it really is great, I switched from another CMS so I do have some experience with PHP but nothing with WordPress.

    I have been stuck on this little problem for a while, I just can’t understand where the problem is originated from. My website is https://www.tillemont.com/new/wordpress/ but if you search anything on the site, the search result page is all screwed up, the tables and css is off. here is an example https://tillemont.com/new/wordpress/?s=marions-nous&lang=en

    Can anybody guide to let me know at least where I have to look into the problem

    Thank you

  • The problem lies with your search.php template. I would open both index.php and search.php side by side and see what the differences are. There’s probably a div missing somewhere.

    I see in the search.php 4 opening divs and 4 closing divs, is there something i am missing?

    <?php global $theme; get_header(); ?>
    <div id="main">

        <?php $theme->hook('main_before'); ?>

        <div id="content">

            <?php $theme->hook('content_before'); ?>

            <h2 class="page-title"><?php _e( 'Search Results for:', 'themater' ); ?> <span><?php echo get_search_query(); ?></span></h2

            <?php
                if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); 

                     /**
                     * The default post formatting from the post.php template file will be used.
                     * If you want to customize the post formatting for your search pages:
                     *
                     *   - Create a new file: post-search.php
                     *   - Copy/Paste the content of post.php to post-search.php
                     *   - Edit and customize the post-search.php file for your needs.

                    get_template_part('post', 'search');
                endwhile;

                else : ?>
                    <div class="entry">
                        <p><?php printf( __( 'Sorry, but nothing matched your search criteria: %s. Please try again with some different keywords.', 'themater' ), '<strong>' . get_search_query() . '</strong>' ); ?></p>
                    </div>

                    <div id="content-search">
                        <?php get_search_form(); ?>
                    </div>
                <?php endif;
                get_template_part('navigation');
            ?>

        </div><!-- #content -->

        <?php get_sidebars(); ?>

        <?php $theme->hook('main_after'); ?>

    </div><!-- #main -->

<?php get_footer(); ?>
