Hi,
Thank you for contacting us and I'd be happy to assist.
This issue with the Elementor's View widget is already reported to the concerned team:
https://toolset.com/errata/elementor-view-widget-for-split-views-doesnt-work-properly-for-block-based-views/
I don't have a time estimate for the fix at the moment, however, there is a simple workaround that you can use in this case:
1. You can create a new page "Page for the view" and create the actual view on this page.
2. Next, on the search page, you can use this shortcode that will only show that view's search results:
[wpv-view name="My Search View" view_display="layout"]
Note: You'll replace "My Search View" with the name of your view.
3. And, on the homepage, you can use this shortcode to show only the search form, from the view:
[wpv-form-view name="My Search View" target_id="123"]
Note: You'll replace "My Search View" with the name of your view and "123" with the ID of the search page, where you'd like this search form to show the results.
I hope this helps and please let me know if you need any further assistance around this.
regards,
Waqar
