Tell us what you are trying to do?
Make a simple search page, which i have done before.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
https://toolset.com/2020/03/helping-visitors-find-what-they-need-using-custom-searches/

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hi Jay,

Thank you for getting in touch.

Would you mind allowing me to have admin access to the website so that I can have a look at this for you ?

I've enabled the private fields for your next response.

Thanks,

Hi Jay,

Thank you for the login details.

I checked our Toolset debug data for your site and found that you're running PHP version 8. Unfortunately our Toolset Plugins are not yet compatible with PHP version 8 as yet.

We are working on making our plugins compatible so we should be able to release an update that will provide this fix.

I do however suspect that this is the reason why the search area isn't showing up. If possible can you downgrade your php version to version 7 ?

Thanks,
Shane
