Tell us what you are trying to do? I try to connect a search form to an archive page

Is there any documentation that you are following? Yes, but the documentation shows the example in which the search form takes you back to a page, not to an archive.

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hey there.

Thanks for reaching out! I’m glad to provide some guidance.

To integrate a search form into your WordPress Archive, utilizing the new Blocks editor, please proceed to the following steps:

In the process of making or editing a WordPress Archive, it's crucial to opt for the "Display the items using a custom search" feature.
Refer to this screenshot for a visual guide: hidden link

After that, you can locate the submission settings for the search form within the configuration options of the "WordPress Archive Search" block.
For further info, here’s a screenshot: hidden link

I hope this helps.

Should you have additional questions or require more help on this topic, please drop us a line.

Mateus

Hey there,

I'm sorry for the confusion here.

If I understand it correctly, you want to have the Immobili search placed in a different area of the site and when the search is triggered you want it to be redirected to the archive page and show the results in there, correct?

You'd be able to do that using pages, but I'm afraid this feature is not available with archives.

Please check this tutorial explaining how you can do it: https://toolset.com/course-lesson/displaying-search-results-on-a-different-page/

Thank you,

Mateus
