  Hi,

  I am currently setting a golf site on WordPress, and have a few problems with the search funcion.

  I recently altered the index page so that it doesn’t show posts anymore, and display my categories instead (I did this manually). But my template doesn’t have a search.php page, the search function used to return the results through the index.php page. Now every time I perform a search, I get directed to the index page.

  I tried to create a search.php page, but I was still directed to the index page.

  Also, I have just installed the Advanced Search plugin hoping that it would work differently, but the same happens (I guess it uses wordpress search engine or something?).

  Thank you for your help.

  Sorry, you’re not in the right place. This is the support forum for WordPress.COM. You need to be over at support for self-hosted WordPress http://wordpress.org/support/

  WordPress.COM or WordPress.ORG? The difference
