Search form not working with custom permalink structure

1

Hey,

I am currently working on a dev site where I created a custom theme using roots. I noticed that when I have the permalink set to default the search functionality works, and when I change it to custom (/%postname%/) the search form redirects to the homepage. Can you please guide me to a solution.

Thanks.

I have found the solution. In wp-includes/general-template.php, on line 172 I had to change the action to “/index.php” from ’ . esc_url( home_url( ‘/’ ) ) . '.
