2.7.1 Search Not Working | WordPress.org

I was working a theme and noticed the search was not working. After 30 minutes of trouble shooting I activated the default theme that came with 2.7.1 to see how it was working with that theme.

However, the user-facing search function in 2.7.1 is not working for me even with the default theme activated. Has anyone run into this problem and what could be the fix?

Well whatever is causing it, it’s due to the search URLs being generated…

yoursite.com/?textfield=test&x=&y=

Is what’s returned when i search for the word test..

Which i believe should be….

yoursite.com/?s=test

I just did a google search on the &x=&y= and it appears that those show up when the search submit is a type=”image”.

However for anyone else who comes across this problem, I found a solution here – http://www.scriptygoddess.com/archives/2009/02/06/get_search_form-in-wordpress/

Ugh. I’ve been working on this no search results problem for two days and I still have no idea what’s going on.

My search string is well-formed: http://www.jungbuenglishchurch.com/?s=problem&submit=

But there’s never any results returned. Even with the default theme. And I’m having the same problem with tags. It’s especially strange since I’ve got another blog on this host and it handles searching / tags without any problems. Losing my mind. Help!!!
