Hi forum.

Anybody know how to fix this problem I’m having with the AjaxSearch snippet?

We are managing two domains from one CMS, one Australian site and a UK site. We have a search form on both sites. I’ve attached a screenshot of what our site tree looks like.

When I do a search, the results return with pages from both sites. Am I doing something wrong??? ’&parents’ is supposed to help me with this problem but it doesn’t seem to effect the results at all!! Hellp.

Here’s my piece of code for the Australian website:

[!AjaxSearch? &ajaxSearch=`0` &parents=`2,6,13,17` &AS_showResults=`0` &AS_landing=`27` &tplLayout=`AS_tplLayout`!]

Any help would be much appreciated

Hi coroico,

1.8.3. Does that make a difference?

Ohh..I just checked the wiki page for Ajax Search ( http://wiki.modxcms.com/index.php/AjaxSearch) and I thought 1.8.3 was the latest version. The text hasn’t been updated next to the "Current Release" link and it still says 1.8.3 but the link actually does lead to a download page for 1.8.4.

Do you think it’ll help if I upgrade?

So yes, upgrade to 1.8.4 because your issue could be due to :

AJAXSEARCH-47 - Filter not working when parents or documents not initialized
