    We use Divi for our pages and we use custom template for our custom pages and custom post type and we wanted for tags to be included in the search so we used WP Extended Search. The plugin is working but then Divi loads the default header and footer for the search results page: https://ansicvpn.com/?s=testing&post_type=courses. I tried creating a template in DIvi for search results but it didn't solve the issue. Also we use a custom template for our search. Please help us.

    In your Divi Theme Builder, did you create a global header?

    If yes, then in the Divi Theme Builder, did you have a search template created?

    If yes, check if the global header is in the search template.

    In your Divi Theme Builder, did you create a global header? - Yes

    If yes, then in the Divi Theme Builder, did you have a search template created? - I have tried this but this is not working. Divi still loads the default header and footer


    How can I force Divi to load the global header and footer on a specific custom template e.g. archive-search.php?

    Kindly share screenshot on your Divi Theme Builder search template.
    **You should have Global Header in the search template for it to work.

    Here is the screenshot. As I have said, this is not working since we are using a custom template file for the search results

    If that's the case, you can only inject Divi Library item into your custom search PHP template.

    Here's a sample:
    <?php echo do_shortcode('[et_pb_section global_module="888"][/et_pb_section]'); ?>

    You will need to replace 888 into your Divi Library item ID, which can be found in the URL of the library item: /wp-admin/post.php?post=12345&action=edit
    **For example, the above ID is 12345

    Do note that you will need to first create a new Divi Library layout item & paste your global header sections in it. Then follow by the steps above.

    It shows a messed up header and footer. Seems like the CSS styling is not being loaded and it still shows the default header and footer.
