August 3, 2011 at 5:01 am #404269I dont think there is, because that is the default search layout.
August 3, 2011 at 7:17 am #404288Well there must be a way to remove filter for actual search results. It is really silly to have two sets of search filters displayed when one has searched.
Can anyone please tell me where the code for the search results page is located so i can remove it. Thanks in advance

Hi
There is a “Quick and dirty solution”: Put #searchForm {display:none;} to your stylesheet and after that you will see only the search results.
August 25, 2011 at 11:08 am #408409How do you put Radio Buttons as filter type? I saw it was there in the features list but i dont find it anywhere.
