Same issue with you and just found it out on stackexchange. Put codes below in the function.php in your theme. function _cancel_query( $query ) { if ( !is_admin() && !is_feed() && is_search() ) { $query = false; } return $query; } add_action( ‘posts_request’, ‘_cancel_query’ ); Here’s the source
Search code comes with wordpress.If you remove search box it does not mean that search page is removed. If you want that google should not crawl your search page then you can specify in your robot.txt file like below : Disallow: /search
The concept of same meta field values being relative to each other isn’t native to WordPress. On top of my head you could create second meta field, which would express that relativeness as a number. So president is 1, vice president 2 and so on. This would be a pain to adjust if the hierarchy … Read more
It is actually pretty annoying to bend WP_Query for it. However there is convenient get_page_by_title() function that can do just that. Despite the name it allows you to pass other post types as third argument.
The quick and simple method might be to create a custom page template and have the search form send the user to the page that you create with it. <?php /* Template Name: Location Results */ if ( isset($_REQUEST[‘search_field_name’]) && !empty($_REQUEST[‘search_field_name’]) ) { # Read and escape the input data # Do your query, grab … Read more
I noticed that your goal is to have an editable content on the search result. You can use another method to do that, by calling the content of the page from your search.php file. You can start by creating a page with the slug search-page as usual. You can also add post meta / custom … Read more
WordPress submits search, by default to bloginfo( ‘wpurl’ ) with search parameter of s set to the search term.. You should be able to do this yourself. You will need to use GET on the form and set name=”s” in your search field. That said, I agree with the comment above by @Howdy_McGee that you … Read more

It depends on what the template uses to output whatever you’re trying to remove. If you look in source at whatever function is outputting what you want to remove, they each have a filter to let you modify output where you can __return_false instead, however, if there’s text or markup surrounding those template tags, your … Read more
You could filter home_template, check for the presence whatever $_GET var is reliably set for each of those requests, and load a different template for those cases. function wpd_home_template( $home_template=”” ){ if( isset( $_GET[‘search_type’] ) ){ $home_template = locate_template( ‘homesearch.php’, false ); } return $home_template; } add_filter( ‘home_template’, ‘wpd_home_template’ ); EDIT- fixed incorrect var test.
