I have found the problem and thought it would be worthy to share.

During one of the updates, a setting was changed in the search widget and it defaulted back to “Show if…Page is…Search Results”. I changed the “Search Results” back to “Front page” as that is where my search box appears on our site.

Simple fix and all is back to normal!

Thank you for your input!

Are you saying that I need to add something like the following?

<?php get_search_form( true ); ?>

If so, where would I need to insert that?

Thanks again for your help!

Brett,

Worked like a charm! Thank you so much.

You rock! ??

Hi there Brett!

I can’t thank you enough for your help. I made the changes you suggested and it worked perfectly!! I don’t mean to make it more difficult, but now that it works, would you be able to tell me how I can input the part number searched for that came up empty into the results? For example: “I’m sorry, it doesn’t look like we have P/N: (search term) in our Inventory database.”.

Again, thank you so much! You have saved me HOURS of time!

Perfect! I have just sent you the code for 3 of my php files – search.php, search-results.php and searchform.php.

Good luck and let me know how it works out!

I have the code for both searchform.php and search.php (Search Results). Before I post it to this thread, I just wanted to make sure this won’t compromise my Website. It won’t be a way in for hackers, right?

Hi there! I apologize for not responding sooner, I have been on a much needed vacation for the past week ?? Let me check on that code and I will get back to you as soon as I can. It is great to know that our thread is helping someone else as this was such a long process and worked out great!

Cheers!

Thank you so much for your response!

I have set the WP_DEBUG to false. I am wondering if somehow the update changed it to true because I certainly only enable it when I am making changes to the site. Regardless, as long as it does not have an impact on our website, no worries on this end!

Cheers!

This issue has been resolved.

For instructions on how to fix the issue, please refer to the Forum “eCommerce Product Catalog by impleCode
[resolved] While on Featured Products Page, Product Names on Menu are wrong” under WordPress > Support > Plugins and Hacks.

Thank you for the information on the browser inspection tool.

My Featured Products are set up using the plugin “eCommerce Product Catalog by Implecode”. I posted this question to that specific forum and the author of the plugin responded with a quick fix solution. Turns out it was an error in the code that they will be resolving on the next update. The following is the code I placed in the functions.php file to solve the issue immediately:

remove_filter( 'the_title', 'override_product_page_title', 10, 2 );

I hope this helps anyone else that may come across the same issue.

Thank you bdbrown for your support and help!

Awesome! Thank you for the code….it worked like a charm! Problem solved ??

Thank you for your response. I was honestly not aware of such a thing called “bumping” a post. My apologies for that.

I have tried deleting and rebuilding the menu, but that did not work. As you suggested, I have repeated this question on my theme’s support forum.

Out of curiosity, how were you able to see that my stylesheet was copied into my child theme?

I am still learning here, so I thank you for the added suggestions and link on how to “enqueue” the parent stylesheet in my child theme. Do you think that this could possibly be related to the issue I am having with my sub-category names being incorrect while on the parent page?

Thanks again for your help!

Any suggestions anybody?

I recently just did this to our website.

You can add a new page and call it Home. You don’t need to write any content. Just below the content area, check the box “Make Redirect Active” and copy the URL for your home page in the “Redirect / Destination URL” box. Save the page. Now you can go to Appearance -> Menus. Add the new Home Page to your Menu Bar and Voila!

Problem solved!

I can’t thank you enough for all of your help and patience through all of this ?? Our website now has an active and working search box with a custom search results page in a nice table format for output. I have even successfully imported our current inventory list to the MySQL parts table to finalize what has been a very long road of learning php. This would not have been accomplished without your expertise.

Thank you again. I believe we can safely close this topic out as resolved ??

You certainly deserve 5 stars in my book!

Cheers!
