Hello,

On the page hidden link
I want search results only to appear when some value is put into the search box. Now there are always results.

I think I need a conditional shortcode. I tried the following:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-search-term]' ne ' ' )"]
....
[/wpv-conditional]

but this does not work.

Please help.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.

Your approach is correct, but the 'wpv-search-term' shortcode also needs the 'param' attribute:

[wpv-conditional if="( '[wpv-search-term param="wpv_post_search"]' ne '' )"]
...
[/wpv-conditional]

regards,
Waqar
