I've created a search page with form and results and now I need to add the search form to another page.
So I've created a brand new page and added the view block and changed the custom search settings to "Only the search form" but in the section "Where do you want to display the results?" there are no pages to choose from

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Can you please try to type something (for instance the page title you are looking for) to that empty box and it should offer you the matching options and out of those offered options you should select the option where you want to display the search result.

oh, well that was easy... though now its duplicated on the page, i have 8 items and the search is displayed 8 times

That is really strange. Can you please share admin access details and let me check whats going wrong with your setup.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

When I try to edit the home page I show me "Beaver Builder" option, have you build your homepage using "Beaver Builder"?

yes, the search is added using the wp-widgets module, same as the suite listings further below

I ended up creating a custom search box and pointing it at the results page instead
