Hi guys,

I am using an Artisteer 4 theme on a Buddypress/BBpress site, but seem to have a problem with the search.

Under the forums there is a search function, but when I put in a search phrase it returns a wordpress post rather than searching the forums.

Has anyone come across this and solved it?

Thanks

Hi,

And when you activate the default WordPress template the problem does not appear?

Best regards,
Tanya

Sorry yes Tanya, I tried it with 2012 theme and search worked fine, so has to be down to the Artisteer theme.

Thanks

This is an issue with bbPress, it loads the content-search.php template from the theme directory, which is wrong. An easy fix is to rename the content-search.php file in your theme directory to content-searchresults.php and then change this line in search.php: 
get_template_part('content', 'search');
to this: 
get_template_part('content', 'searchresults');
