I am having difficulty in making a simple search work on my site. The problem is occurring because I have 3 lists, calling three different tables, present on the same page.

It can be viewed here: www.wemakemagazines.co.uk/blog/

The search should relate to the blog archive only.

The problem occurs when no records are found. Everything works as it should in the main page but the two lists in the footer also return 'no records found'.

How can I make the search only relate to the main list and leave the footer lists intact?

Thank you
Jeff

Hi,

What you can do is turn off searching for any tables you don't want the search to affect. You do this by adding:

'allowSearch' => false,

option to the getRecords() call for those tables that shouldn't be searched.

Hope this helps
