    Please was the “search” field/option corrected? According to previous post (https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/search-button-24) it is a known issue that will be fixed in next version, but seems not the case.

    In 2.1.4 I experience the same behavior – when trying to search for product, I am always getting only to 404 page:

    WooCommerce shop of course has many products with BARE in its name. All products are in categoried, and categories are correctly displayed in “search” dialog (in second column dropdown). Please shall such product search work out of the box or some additional parameterization/setup is needed?

    The recommended css tweak seems not solving the issue:

    div#sticky-wrapper
    {
    z-index: 999;
    }

    Many thanks for any advice

    Hello There,

    Greetings of the day!

    We have checked the issue in our demo and also on your site also https://georgiakos.gr/
    And it is working fine and has not got a 404 error.

    feel free to get in touch in case of any other query.

    Thanks and Regards.

    Thank you for your reply. It helped me to realize the core reason – my site is using Polylang for different site language mutations and one of the the parameters was modifying the site URL (ie. hidding the default language in the site URL). Though might be “nicer” for the user, it also broke the theme search functionality (as it was refering to not existing URL structure).
    The issue was corrected by setting the “Hide URL language information for default language” parameter to FALSE, in language setup (screenshot).

    After this paramterization the theme search works perfectly.
    Many thanks! Am closing this support case, as resolved.
