Search sidebox problem

[timhersh]

Hello my search sidebox works perfectly fine when I use the stock template, but as soon as I switch to a new template it stops working. I'm sure I just need to edit something but I can't figure it out

Here is the site

I'm afraid I'm not sure exactly what you mean from your problem description.

I performed a search and saw a few words with capital letters and underscores. If that is what you mean by your problem, then it is due to your PHP defines not being setup correctly in your overrides.

To fix the problem, look at these two Tutorial/FAQ articles:

Thanks for the reply, it is a very weird problem since it works with the default template but as soon as I switch it to my custom template it stops working.

I did search the toolkit earlier and found that the only file that contains that text is in my cart/includes/templates/iC_AthemeV1.3/templates/tpl_advanced_search_result_default.php


The code in that file is below. I am a pretty experienced designer (I thought) and I have no idea why I am getting this error or what to do next. Please help I need to have a search function on this site.

From the code you posted, it seems like you have a mod (i.e. Advanced Search Plus) that is wrongly or not installed at all which is causing the problems you mentioned.

If you suspect its a problem with the template itself. It would be best to post in a support thread for the template so the template author has a chance to review the code. It would also help others with similar template problems as well.
