   If anyone's been struggling with getting this plug-in to search pages instead of posts here's what you need to do. (The author's explanation is minimal so I hope this post sheds some light on things)

   Step 1:
   Add a field in the interface, the label can be anything as it won't show up in the end interface. I suggest "Hidden pages value" or something like that

   Step 2:
   Set the data type value to "post type"

   Step 3:
   Set Widget to "hidden constant"

   Step 4:
   Compare should be "equals"

   Step 5:
   Set widget config to "Page"

   Should look for pages, not posts now. Useful if you're using WP as a CMS

   Hi there

   I tried this and it worked first time, but then the search box disappeared, even after changing themes. Have you experienced this before, and if so do you know of a solution.

   Thank you for any help you can provide.
