[SOLVED] [JS error will not allow module to submit searchword] Search module doesn't display results after upgrade

Hello,
I've just upgraded FC to 3.0.9-rc and Joomla to 3.4.5 and now when I use the FC search module, it leads me to the correct search page and the search box on that page is pre-filled with the correct search term, however the results don't display. They only appear when I use the search box on the search page. Any ideas as to what might be causing this?

The "direct button" mode acts the same way (brings me to the search page but doesn't display results) but it would be great if it worked correctly as this search is for a product code only so there's only 1 result for each search (didn't notice this option before, a new addition?).

The module leads to a page with the URL /search but the search form on the search page gets a URL /search?searchword=ss429&searchphrase=natural&cc=p after the search has been performed.

Thanks,
Agata

Hello

please update to v3.0.9-rc2 (12 November 2015), it fixes issues found in v3.0.9-rc

about the issue with search module, it seems that the search menu item configuration is not used by the module
(in the search module you can select a search menu item to use its configuration and link to it)

after upgrading re-test
and then if still having an issue send a PM and i will see why configuration of search menu item is not being applied by the module

Hello,
The module features the itemid of the menu item and it used to work but now it doesn't. I upgraded FC to RC3 and still nothing. I will send you the access data to the site.

Hello

About search menu configuration

1. you did not make at least field "title" to be "(advanced) text searchable",

you only have "Project code", (i guess that is what you want with the module) you can limit searchable fields in the search menu item,
thus you can mark fields as text searchable only the "Project code", and not let all searchable fields participate in search,

... but text autocomplete will use ALL fields,
- so maybe we need to update our text search autocomplete code to use search menu item configuration !

2. mistake?: you have chosen to use "phrase" as word combination, this does not allow partial matches
use: "any words", this will allow you to search for code "ss6" which will return "ss679", etc

3. problem(see my next answer about module): the jQuery loading is broken in the search view, thus "text autocomplete" will not work
you can use jQueryeasy or fix it someway, and thus autocomplete will help the user search existing words

Also: after marking of a field as text searchable, you will get a warning to re-index, remember to do it

Hello

about module i found why it is not working
- the search word is added to the URL via javascript

but you have a javascript error in your page:
ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined tmpl-common.js:204:1
ReferenceError: jQuery is not defined projects:34:3
ReferenceError: Joomla is not defined projects:58:7

thus the search word is not added to the URL

All red errors in the console have been resolved, however the problem persists and I get "TypeError: this.form.searchword is undefined"

I just tested it on a sandbox with the template changed to protostar and the behaviour is the same, that is when using the module you get redirected to the search page and the form on that page is pre-filled with the search word but results don't show and only when using the search page form the results appear. The only difference I noticed is that when using the module, the URL is /search?q=ss429&cc=p and when searching on the search page, it's /search?q=ss429&searchphrase=natural&cc=p

Hello

i still do not see the module to submit the search words !

the search menu item (search view) opens without the search phrase, the JS submit code fails

i will test without the submit button in case this is related, (you can enable submit button to see if it is related)

i have made this issue:
github.com/FLEXIcontent/flexicontent-cck/issues/365
v3.0.9 milestone , last issue of v3.0.9 ?

Yes, I know the search page opens without the search phrase but it wasn't caused by the JS errors. Here's the sandbox running Protostar sandbox-spiral.wilddog.co.uk/ with the same issue even though the search term gets added to the URL.

Hello

i also see a problem with module, sometimes the search-areas are set wrongly,
causing the search view to think that there is nothing to search for

i have updated GitHub issue
will make a fix soon,

i think the above is your case (but you still need to fix the JS issue so that searchword submit)

the other JS problem :
TypeError: this.form.searchword is undefined

i ll fix it , but it is not reason the reason searchword (&q=) to be empty
