Edited my post.

Urgh I’m super confused now, which tags am I using here :S

I have the if_search to detect if we are searching or not, ie you have searched or are just on the search page
and I have the if_search_results to detect if we have search results or not and show either a yes or no answer

Which one needs wrapping inside the other (if at all).

Thank you

Not sure why it isn’t working, but for clarity, I would write the last part of your code as this:

<txp:if_search>
  <txp:if_search_results>
    <p>These articles match your search request: </p>
    <txp:article form="search_results" sort="Section asc" />
  <txp:else />
    <p>Sorry, we were not able to find a page matching your search request <strong><txp:search_term /></strong>.</p>
  </txp:if_search_results>
<txp:else />
  <p>No Content Available...</p>
</txp:if_search>

okies, now the search ALWAYS says no results were found (it doesnt display them either) :P

there are several articles called Lorem Ipsum, and here is a test search: http://www.simplecandy.com/search?q=lorem+ip

But the results don’t show :S

We forgot to tell you about pgonly: just put <txp:article pgonly="1" /> before the if_search_results tag. It doesn’t display anything but it is needed to count the articles.

<txp:if_search>
<txp:article pgonly="1" />
  <txp:if_search_results>
    <p>These articles match your search request: </p>
    <txp:article form="search_results" sort="Section asc" />
  <txp:else />
    <p>Sorry, we were not able to find a page matching your search request <strong><txp:search_term /></strong>.</p>
  </txp:if_search_results>
<txp:else />
  <p>No Content Available...</p>
</txp:if_search>

Out of curiosity, how many be default (search links) will be displayed and do they have pagination?

And the code changed fixed the bug, cheers :) x

~~Search :)~~

Edit: OK, that search id didn’t last very long… if you search the forum for pagination AND search AND results you will find some useful topics.

<txp:article/> will display all articles unless told to do otherwise by it’s Attributes

No, if I’m not mistaken the default for limit is 10 (see limit attribute in textbook)

Set limit="999" to get ‘all’ (=up to 999) results.

Doh!

limit="integer" 
The number of articles to display. Default is 10.

Note to self: Read before posting Matt!

Using that code I am getting…

When a search is met at the bottom after the search results by default: “These articles match your search request:”

When no articles can be found: Sorry, we were not able to find a page matching your search request blahblah.
And: Seems like you are looking for a very common search term. You’d better use a more specific search phrase.

How can I get rid of those statements. They are unstyled and I would like them removed.

Note – Edit: I have started a new thread about this topic here: http://forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?id=28563
