    I have upgraded to 2.5.1 from 2.1 and now the search-functionality doesn’t work. Not from the main page neither from the dashboard. Somebody can help me? Thanks.

    Try your-site.com/?s=hi

    When I do that, it shows the “not found” page.

    can you be a little more specific about “doesn’t work” or provide a web address in your profile that actually loads?

    or … something?…. anything!

    “*splutter* doesn’t work *cough* help me!” isn’t really enough information to do anything with.

    I wonder if road-side assistance gets stuff like this… I bet they do.

    > hello, roadside assistance
    hi, car isn’t working
    > ok, where are you?
    next to my freaking car! Help me!

    Hello roadside assistance! Try yourself: http://ultralocalia.cat. You can search the word “gallina”, for example. Thanks.

    I’m on my way to your site – in the mean time, your profile here has a typo in your web address which is why I couldn’t visit your site earlier.

    ok, I’ve tried several keywords from your site, and while the search page DOES load, it shows no results.

    that leads me to believe that there’s something wrong with your template’s search.php file.

    please paste the entire contents of the file into: http://wordpress.pastebin.com/ then post the link back here.

    ok… I think the solution is simple.

    You have a few custom queries in your sidebar, but for some reason your sidebar code in your search template comes BEFORE the content area.

    <?php get_sidebar(); ?>

    this should go beneath the WHILE loop on that page because the custom queries in your sidebar are destroying the search query.

    I thing the problem is not in the theme. Placing the code where you said the problem subsists. It happens also with the Kubrick theme and when you search from the dashboard editor (?)

    Finally, the guilty was the Even Calendar plugin in the sidebar. After all, thanks a lot, Ivovic, for your help. And sorry for my English… I need to improve it as soon as possible. 🙂
