I want to create a search field on my homepage (like picture 1 attached) and show the results of enlace oculto
I used the step below but the option 'Only the search form' is not available (like picture 2 attached).

How can I create this search bar on my homepage?
Hi,
Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.
The option to choose from 'search form', 'search results', or 'both' is available, when a view is inserted as an 'existing' view. Those options are not available, in the view block where the view is created, originally.
This means you'll create the view on one page and use it on two other pages, as existing views, to show the search form and search results, respectively.

Hi,
Thank, so what are the steps to create a search form on my home page and redirect it to: enlace oculto
So like:
enlace oculto [search form]
enlace oculto [result]
Thanks for writing back.
1). I would create a view with the search form and results on the page where you'd like to show the results.
( i.e. enlace oculto )
2). And on the homepage, where you only want to show the search form, you'll insert the View block and select the view as an existing view from step 1.
This view block will show you the option to show only the search form and select the page, that will be used for redirection of results.

The page enlace oculto s a archive search page.
I get the message: nested views creation is not supported at the moment.
Your observation is correct.
It is not possible to nest one view into another and also a view can't be inserted into a WordPress Archive.
You can independently create a search form and results on the archive pages, as explained here:

As an alternative, can use a regular page and not an archive page, to show the results, coming from the search form available on the homepage.
( as explained in my last reply )
Okay so it is not possible to create a search form on the homepage and show the result of enlace oculto?
If this is an archive page, then no it won't be possible.
From the page's code, it doesn't look like it is an archive page, though. If you could share temporary admin login details, I can take a look in the admin area and confirm.
