Yeah but I added the code myself, so it was pretty much my own fault. :p

Fixed it myself! Turns out I had to remove the <?php query_posts('post_type=post') ?> on top of my template page, and now it works! Thank you for your time Steve ??

Done, still sees the custom page as part of the home page though.

This is actually added by another plugin which injects the code into my pages, and not the theme itself. But this does not have anything to do with my problem, right? I still do not understand why your plugin sees my custom page (second link I sent you) as the homepage (wordpress itself sees it as the homepage too I guess, which it is not).

Can I send you the url in a private message or via email?

There is no real difference between my page.php and the twentysixteen page.php. My problem is that my custom page created through the pages tab in wordpress dashboard is given the characteristics of the homepage (eg: same description, title, canonical url, active menu tab) although it is a seperate page (example.com/testpage).

I did everything you said and all was OK, settings look fine too. One thing worth mentioning is that the homepage is just fine, I just want the custom page with the custom template file to act like a seperate page. Currently everything; description, title and even the menu says I am on the homepage although I am sure I am on my custom page. :/

Yes I am.

Yes it is.

Ah okay, does it have any negative impact on my seo or description?

Thank you for your reply. I’ve done some research, and it appears that the <script> tags are not working, even though I’ve allowed them in your plugin settings.

Is there a way just to display the whole post in search results maybe? This would solve the tags not working.

It is going to be user specific. I want to use it to let users search through multiple categories with the same search string easily, without having to retype the search every time they switch category.

But I would like to have the $_GET[‘s’] be the same until you do a next search query. Currently if I search ‘test’ on page one and switch to another page the $_GET[‘s’] value gets unset somehow.

Anyone?

Anyone? Maybe some kind of filter available?
