 * Hi,
    I have question about plugin. I’ve insert it by shortcode in “normal” WordPress
   page and it works perfectly, that was plugin what i was looking for. But: When
   I insert it by php function:
 * `<?php echo do_shortcode('[mse-search-form]');?>`
 * It sometimes is working sometimes is not. For example I put this code in “Search
   result” I want to put search form again when someone didn’t find photo what was
   looking for.
 * When You are searching from normal wordpress page links goes for:
    `example.com/?
   s=SEARCHTEXT&post_type=attachment`
 * But when you put another text using Search Engine on mentioned above Search Results
   page, link goes for:
    `example.com/?post_type=attachment&post_type=attachment`
 * Is there any option to make it works?

 * Hi, do you also put this shortcode in your search results page to replace the
   default WP search form?
