Adding a “No results found” Message

Hi @pavloborysenko please understand that my knowledge of php is non existent. I don’t understand php.

This is my current code:

<?php if (!defined('ABSPATH')) die('No direct access allowed'); ?>
<?php
wp_enqueue_style('my_kitchensnew3', get_template_directory_uri() . '/mdf_templates/any/my_kitchensnew3/css/bootstrap.min.css');
wp_enqueue_style('my_kitchensnew3-1', get_template_directory_uri() . '/mdf_templates/any/my_kitchensnew3/css/styles.css');
global $mdf_loop;
$zoom = 3;

if (isset($_REQUEST['meta_data_filter_args']['tax_query']))
{
    $taxes = $_REQUEST['meta_data_filter_args']['tax_query'];
    if (!empty($taxes))
    {
        foreach ($taxes as $value)
        {
            if (isset($value['taxonomy']) AND $value['taxonomy'] == 'locations')
            {
                $zoom = 11;
                break;
            }
        }
    }
}

echo do_shortcode('[mdf_gmap height="300" width="100" zoom="' . $zoom . '" maptype="TERRAIN" metakey="medafi_map"]');
echo '<br />';
MDTF_SORT_PANEL::mdtf_catalog_ordering();
?>

<div class="row previews">
    <?php
    while ($mdf_loop->have_posts()) : $mdf_loop->the_post();
        ?>
        <div class="col-md-3">
            <div class="thumbnail">
                <?php
                if (has_post_thumbnail($post->ID))
                {
                    echo '<a href="' . get_permalink($post->ID) . '" title="' . esc_attr($post->post_title) . '">';
                    echo '<img src="' . MDTF_HELPER::get_post_featured_image($post->ID, '350x300') . '" alt="" />';
                    echo '</a>';
                }
                ?>
				
				<div class="heart11"><p style="text-align: right;">
                        <?php echo do_shortcode('[favorite_button post_id="" site_id=""]') ?>
                    </p></div>
				
                <div class="caption" style="max-height: 650px; text-align: left">
                    <h3><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" target="_blank"><?php the_title() ?></a></h3>

                    
                    

                    <br />
                    
                    <div style="clear: both;"></div>
                </div>
            </div>
        </div>
    <?php endwhile; // end of the loop.     ?>
</div>

If you can show me where to implement what you have suggested I would be very very grateful.

Thanks,

Thanks @pavloborysenko ….I think there may be a separate issue. Where as I initially thought that the page was displaying blank when there was no results, there was actually an error taking place. Im using the Custom shortcode to display results in an elementor themed page. So what i did was created a temporary results page without elementor to see if there would be a difference.

Here’s what I found… With or without your code I get the following message on a page when there’s no results to show (see below)

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function do_shotrcode() in /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-content/plugins/wp-meta-data-filter-and-taxonomy-filter/classes/shortcodes.php:967 Stack trace: #0 /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-includes/shortcodes.php(319): MetaDataFilterShortcodes::mdf_custom(Array, '', 'mdf_custom') #1 [internal function]: do_shortcode_tag(Array) #2 /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-includes/shortcodes.php(197): preg_replace_callback('/\\[(\\[?)(mdf_cu...', 'do_shortcode_ta...', '[mdf_custom tem...') #3 /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(286): do_shortcode('[mdf_custom tem...') #4 /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-includes/plugin.php(203): WP_Hook->apply_filters('[mdf_custom tem...', Array) #5 /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-includes/post-template.php(240): apply_filters('the_content', '[mdf_custom tem...') #6 /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-content/themes/astra/template-parts/content-page.ph in /homepages/6/d568366588/htdocs/w_bnc/wp-content/plugins/wp-meta-data-filter-and-taxonomy-filter/classes/shortcodes.php on line 967

The first thing that I noticed was the Call to undefined function do_shotrcode()
Could this issue be because do_shotrcode is spelled incorrectly? Or do you think there may be another issue?

I appreciate your feedback, I’m sorry If this got a little complex.

Thanks
