I recently completed a WordPress site design, and I'm just struggling with one bug: when a user clicks the "Search" button without any content in the text field, they are redirected to a list of posts. Is there a way to modify this action? Ideally, if the text field is empty, the user will be redirected to the homepage.

The default WordPress action is to redirect to the homepage when the search is blank - just what you want! Do you have any plugins or .htaccess settings that may be changing this?

  • You're right, thanks very much. I inherited this site from another developer who built the homepage using a template page and didn't include a default index.php file; I've fixed the problem. Thanks! Commented Jul 30, 2011 at 4:29
