Search does not work on Sydney

Hello there,

Please visit this link. This is the search page which displays the same result when you type “ipsum” word and hit enter in the search box widget.

Does your site have something special like extra active plugins? What will happen if you temporarily disable all active plugins except Page Builder and Sydney Toolbox?

Regards,

Disabling all plugins did not work. As outlined earlier search does work on other themes like Atahualpa and twenty fourteen with or without plugins disabled.
I have made now another clone of the original website and will add Sydney to this new clone. Only difference with the original, first clone is that with the latter I made a child design. With the new clone I will not make a child design, because I have some feeling that the child design is causing the problem.

Hi, I rebuilt the site up to the point I arrived earlier starting with a ‘fresh’ clone. Also I made a child theme. So far everything is working fine, including ‘Search’!
Because of this I don’t know what went wrong the first time however I am glad that it is working. I still have to add some (new to me) options such as pop-up facility and also a encyclopedia facility. The latter one may replace the search facility if I can get the pedia to work, which does not seem to be easy due to lack of documentation of the one I found Encyclopedia Lite by dennis Hoppe.
Thanks for the suggestions.
Jacob
