Hi,

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

In the view's "Custom Search Settings", you'll see the option "Do not adjust URLs after loading search results", which can be used for this.

Hello again and thank you for your help,

I'm working this view with toolset blocks --> hidden link, so I don't see this option. Is there any way to set this option from there?

Kind Regards,
Chris

Hi Chris,

I've performed some tests on my website and it seems that the option to control URL when search results update, isn't available when a view is being edited using the new block editor.

I've shared this with the concerned team for further review and will keep you updated through this ticket.

Meanwhile, if that option is important, you can re-create the view using the classic views editor (Toolset -> Views) and then you'll be able to control that option.

regards,

Hi Chris,

Adding to my previous message, there is a global option "Enable history management settings for AJAX custom search", which can be disabled from WP Admin -> Toolset -> Settings -> Front-end Content.

It's important to note that this option will work for all views on the website, which are set to update results using AJAX and the URL will stay the same.
