Bug found with search widget

OK, Use Pre-Path Mode in Language settings and Post name in the Permalinks? You could try to save the Parmalinks again.

It is using Pre-Path Mode, what do you mean by saving the permalinks again? If you mean going to permalink settings and hit save changes, doesn’t make any difference.

how does your .htaccess file look?

Still did not found a solution to this.
@gunu my .htaccess only contains default WordPress rewrite rules

The WP Widget echos the form action like this:

https://www.quicksilvertranslate.com/de

which leads to a search url like this:

https://www.quicksilvertranslate.com/de?s=test

which gets redirected to the first post that slug fits the lang-prefix and puts the GET parameters at the end, which leads to a 404

If you change the search url to

https://www.quicksilvertranslate.com/de/?s=test

then the search is done correctly.

So it has to be something to do with the slash sign at the end of the action URL.

Do you use a custom searchform.php in your theme? maybe you can edit the action to incorporate the last ‘/’ ?

Happy Coding,

@kuchenundkakao yes I do have a searchform.php with this code:

<div class="search">
    <form method="get" action="<?php echo bloginfo('url'); ?>" class="clear">
	<div>
    	<input type="text" id="s" name="s" value="" class="text" />
    	<input type="submit" value="Search" id="searchsubmit" class="submit" />
	</div>
    </form>
</div>

How do I add the last slash?

Great!!! it works now.
<form method="get" action="<?php echo bloginfo('url'); ?>/" class="clear">

Thank you so much @kuchenundkakao

no problem ??

Please change the status to “resolved” if you can edit that (don’t know if only the plugin author can do that)

OK solved
