 * Hi,
 * I’m using a dropdown with custom taxonomies, but the search results aren’t showing
   the right pages. In settings, I have selected the post type and the taxonomy 
   to include in the index. The taxonomies are listed in the dropdown.
 * When I use a regular input search field, the search results are fine, but with
   a dropdown, they are showing pages unrelated to the keyword.

 * You cut out the interesting part from your screenshots… Can you show me the complete
   search page URL for a taxonomy term search?

 * My client upgraded the plugin and now the search results aren’t showing at all.
   
   The URL is /?City=42 , and instead of results, it’s just refreshing homepage.

 * There’s no search term in that, so there’s no search. That’s just a category 
   browse, and Relevanssi has nothing to do with that. It may well be your theme
   doesn’t understand that either.
