I am trying to get a custom no search result page working and all I keep getting is the standar white background/ gray box with the text, 

Search Results:
Your search did not return any results.
Return to Previous Page

My code for my simple search form is as follows:

<div class="search_box search_results_page">
                {exp:search:simple_form channel="recipes" id="recipe_search" result_page="recipes/search-result"  no_result_page="recipes/no-results" }
                    <span class="search_box_content">
                        <label for="keywords">Search:</label> 
                        <input type="text" name="keywords" id="keywords" class="clear_default" value="Search for a recipe" size="18" maxlength="100">
                        <input id="recipe_submit" type="submit" value="" class="submit">
                    </span>
                {/exp:search:simple_form}
            </div>

The template DOES exist and lives in the same template.group as the search template.

I have also looked at this thread: Simple Search returns System Message template for No Results even when 'no_result_page' set

But that doesn't seem to have helped me either, I get an error: 

Fatal error: Call to undefined function ee() in /home/sites/justmilk.com/public_html/dev.justmilk.com/jmadmin/expressionengine/modules/search/mod.search.php on line 1262

I am fairly new to EE so any ideas hints tips would be appreciated.

  • What version of EE are you running? – Alex Kendrick♦ Apr 15 '14 at 18:52

    It is an older version, 2.3.1. We want to update the system but finding time to upgrade and test is proving difficult at present. We just need a fix until such a time can be set aside to upgrade the site. – DLaverick Apr 16 '14 at 10:03
  • In that case you need to use $this->EE instead of ee() when trying the bug fix from the bug tracker. I added an answer -- hope it helps! – Alex Kendrick♦ Apr 16 '14 at 13:54

My No Results Page had this code, which is incorrect:

{exp:search:search_results}

    <p>We have been unable to find any results for '{exp:search:keywords}'</p> 

{/exp:search:search_results}

I found the answer I was looking for here:

By using this code:

Sorry, there are no results for '{exp:search:keywords} {exp:search:keywords} {/exp:search:keywords}'

This fixed the error. All that is left to do is clean up my template.
