Re: Search queries via a URL in version 4.0.x!!
 

I use 4.1.2, why it doesn't work?
It still shows
http://www.domainname.com/shop/search.php?mode=search&page=1

Connie -

The link still shows in the browser the same in a straight search, that doesn't change. It's the URL you use in a link that dictates a search. Take a look at the #1 post here, Carrie gives link examples at the bottom of that post.

Re: Search queries via a URL in version 4.0.x!!
 

Thanks for your reply.
The problem is if the search result is more than one page, then the 2nd page link shows
http://shop.com/search.php?mode=search&page=2
I have the problem when first search "monkey" , the page 1 is correct, the page 2 is correct.
Then I search for "rabbit", the page 1 is correct, the page 2 shows monkey's items because the page 2 link is the same http://shop.com/search.php?mode=search&page=2
xcart gives the old searched page

I think just post the search result link, then the page 2 can't get search string from METHOD="POST" , how to fix this problem?
Thanks!

Re: Search queries via a URL in version 4.0.x!!
 

anybody knows "Search queries via a URL" can also use in search result page 2, page 3 in cart version 4.1.x?

Re: Search queries via a URL in version 4.0.x!!
 

I am having the same problem with 4.1.3 as well. When I use link:

www.domain.com/search.php?search=widget

and it brings back more than 1 page of results & I then use the same link again but change widget to another item that you know will bring back more than 1 page of results, it skips the first page of results on the second search.

Did anyone figure out how to fix the multiple page issues for the search strings?

For paginated results
www.domain.com/search.php?search=widget&page=2
www.domain.com/search.php?search=widget&page=3


To display search substring in the page title :


in skin1/customer/home.tpl

add something like this:
{elseif $mode eq "search"}
{$smarty.get.search}

Re: Search queries via a URL in version 4.0.x!!
 

Anyone still having troubles with this for 4.1.x and multiple pages? It just worked for me on a 4.1.3 site using only the code I posted in the original thread.

Let me know!

Thanks,

Carrie

Re: Search queries via a URL in version 4.0.x!!
 

How do I get the "search=widget" added to the page links?
Also, search results seem to be off. I have fewer results using this method, than the plain search.

TIA, Jerry
