Hi Juan,

Thank you for waiting.

During troubleshooting, I noticed that the "Filtro de consulta" section of your view ("List") is empty.
( screenshot: hidden link )

The way search filtering works in views, a relevant filter query is automatically added into this "Filtro de consulta" section, when a new filter is added through the "Búsqueda y paginación" section.
( screenshot: hidden link )

But in this particular view, the search form's fields are available in the "Búsqueda y paginación" section, but no query filters exist in the "Filtro de consulta" section.

This is the reason that the search form is showing on the page, but the results are not updating accordingly.

To fix this, I'll suggest removing all the code in between the [wpv-filter-controls] and [/wpv-filter-controls] ( screenshot: hidden link ) and then use the "Nuevo filtro" button in the "Búsqueda y paginación" section, to add these filters again.

We have a detailed guide on the topic of search filters at:
https://toolset.com/documentation/user-guides/front-page-filters/

I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.

regards,
Waqar
