Hi,

I just published a search module on my blog. It doesn't work when I type in a topic and click search. I only get redirected to the website's main page.

Here's the link:
http://merryweatherfoam.com/easyblog/latest

Backend details are under my site details tab.
Hey Evan,

I tried to perform a search from the module and it does seem to work correctly as you can see here, http://screencast.com/t/RZtoQCcaHX

Hey Evan,

I tried accessing http://merryweatherfoam.com/easyblog/latest but don't seem to hit any errors here. Am I missing anything here?

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the fast reply! :-)

I disabled the search module. If you'd want to see the error again, we'd have to enable the module. Do you want me to do that?

Hey Evan,

I think you might be using the older search blogs module. Can you go to your module manager and click on the "New" button, then search for "EasyBlog - Search blogs module". Then, assign it to the page.

Hi Mark,

Thanks again for the fast reply...I appreciate it.

I did as you suggested. I'm not getting the error message, but the search module doesn't work on my end (I'm using the latest Chrome). Here's a video: https://www.dropbox.com/s/8lhwvuobcfzd0u2/2016-01-13_11-22-33.mp4?dl=0

Ah, okay I see the issue now. I think there is an issue with your Joomla template because they are not checking for the option correctly.

Anyway can you try this, edit the file /modules/mod_easyblogsearch/tmpl/default.php and locate the codes below,


<form name="search-blogs" action="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php');?>" method="post">


Replace it with,


<form name="search-blogs" action="<?php echo JRoute::_('index.php?option=com_easyblog');?>" method="post">


I would love to help you try this but your ftp isn't working as I can't save the files
