No permalink in search results url

Is there some reason for this?

And can it be bypassed without problems?

In the link you provide it is suggested to if you enter in your address bar “http://your-site.com/search/the”, you will land at the search page for word “the”.

In my site I get redirected to the home page.

Also, trying to correct the search results link through the search_link filter of the get_search_link() function has no effect.

By the way, the get_search_link() function returns the correct url (“http://your-site.com/search/the”). Probably there is some redirect or rewrite in place.

So the method suggested in the link does not work anymore.

Anything else that could be done?
