How to add search button in wordpress archives?

[Paweł Pela]

Dear Faraz,

Basically this can be done in a couple of ways:

- by using Views and choosing Archives - you can insert any HTML code to a view
- by using Widgets if your theme allows it
- by using our new product - Layouts

But in any case, you would have to be a bit more specific so I can be of better help.

Please let me know if you are satisfied with my answer and if I can help you with any other questions you might have.

Regards,
Paweł

Hi Pawel,

I created a view and called the view in the wordpress archives with this url info. https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/views/#2.5
what i'm trying to do is i need to create a search box and search button to search project-tags and also project-types..
i used this code in the view:
[wpv-filter-search-box]
[wpv-filter-submit name="Search"]
still not working.Do i need to add anything else?
please suggest.

Thanks,
Faraz.

Dear Faraz,

To do this, you will have to create a Parametric Search View as explained here: https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/front-page-filters/

Hi Pawel,

i created parametric search and i called the parametric search form in wordpress archives.

but when ever i select the tag and click on search button it should show only specific tag items when i selected.
In the above url,if i select different tags also it goes to one item page.
please suggest.

Dear Faraz,

When you insert the search to your Archive View, you need to select the correct target. In your case it would be the same page.

Dear Faraz,

The problem is related to the fact that you should set target of the search form to something else, like a page which will display the View with results.
