Hi there,
I have a Archive page with a custom search:
hidden link

I would like for the search input boxes to be on the left side across 4 columns, and the search results to be in the same row, across the remaining 8 columns. What's the best way to achieve this?
Attaching a screen shot for more information.
Thanks!

Hi John,

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

If this is for an archive then this setup wouldn't be possible, because the form and the results are done as one.

However what you can do is to create a parametric search, with the cpt that you want to have on this archive. You will need to redirect this archive directly to your custom page with this new setup.

Please let me know what you think about this.

Thanks,
Shane

Thanks for the response Shane.
I'd be happy to do a parametric search, but I don't know how. Is there documentation for that? I can't find any doing a search of your site.
