my search have 500 The page I need help with: [ log in to see the link] Hi! Thank you for reporting. Unfortunately the error message itself (with the reason) is not displayed in the response. Can you please share the relevant part from the server PHP error log? There is likely one or more records in there pointing to the ajax-search-lite folder and to the exact reason of the issue. With that I will be able to tell what the cause is and fix it. All the best, Ernest it say the request failed. Please check your connection!Status:500 PHP Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: array_merge(): Argument #1 must be of type array, null given in /var/web/staging/public_html/wp-content/plugins/ajax-search-lite/includes/classes/etc/class-asl_helpers.php:597 Perfect, thank You, I see the issue now! I will quick patch this, you can expect a release later today. If you see any other related errors please let me know. All the best, Ernest Many Thanks Also experiencing problems, and just pitching in with what I’ve got so far: ASL has been returning results from Pods CPT’s for years. Noticed no results returned from one CPT, today. Cloned the site to debugging website and disabled everything else. Native search (/s=query) worked fine without ASL Enabled debugging but nothing relevant showed up. Downgraded from 4.14.1 to 4.13.5, and search works correctly again. WP 6.9.4 and PHP 8.3 Thank you @ernestmarcinko for your hard work! Let me know if I can provide additional information to help squash this bug /Bjarne Thank you @oldrup Are you also using WooCommerce by any chance? The issue I identified here is related to that. If not, then can you please check your PHP error log and share the relevant part here? There you should see something similar to what have been posted here earlier. Thank you! If there is no error message, just no results, then it is likely a different issue, in that case can you please open a different thread and we will try to figure it out there. All the best, Ernest No Woo here; will open new thread 🫡 Hi again Ernest just checking to see if the problem was resolved thanks Hi @saraergas75 Yes! I have found the cause of the issue you reported, the patch should be up and approved within 6-12 hours.
