WordPress search not working

    Hello.
    I’ve been on the forums for a couple of weeks and cannot use the Search Forums function at the top of the page. It just get a message that says loading and nothing happens. There is just the header, a light gray band that says “Loading,” and the footer.

    It makes it difficult to do things like see if anyone else has had this problem.

    To rule out any plugin/theme conflict, try:
    – deactivating ALL (yes all) plugins temporarily to see if this resolves the problem (plugin functions can interfere). If this works, re-activate them individually (one-by-one) to find the problematic plugin(s).
    – switching to the unedited default Theme (Twenty Seventeen.) for a moment using the WP dashboard to rule out any theme-specific issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

    Sorry @t-p.

    This is the forum search that is the problem, like at the top of the page we are reading. When I come to the forums it is impossible to search through the different posts because the loader seems to get stuck.

    But now that you mention it, I will test the search on my website too.

    Again, sorry for any confusion.

    Was there ever a resolution to this issue? I’m using Firefox Developer Edition 59.0b9, Safari 10.1.2, and Firefox 58.0.2 on OSX El Capitan (10.11.6) and cannot get the www.remarpro.com search function to work on any page. Just so it is clear, I am trying to search the www.remarpro.com forums and get nothing more than a “loading” message on a search page when looking for a word or phrase in the forums. I’ve been trying for days without success!
