I have created a custom attribute and selected all the options for it to show in search. But it still doesn’t appear on the search form on my home page
This problem was reported here Adding attribute to default search form
but there was no solution posted.
FYI I have selected all categories, and also the field type is Select.
My search bar on homepage alone, shows only keyword and categories.
See screenshot
Hi,
Please disable third-party plugins and customizations (if there are any) and check if this issue persists. If you use a caching plugin, ensure that caching is disabled for logged-in users. If this issue exists, please send a screenshot of all settings of this attribute.
Hello,
I have disabled the plugins as you said, but it still doesn’t work. The attribute only shows up on the Search bar on the categories page. See screenshots of settings below.
Hi,
You have restricted this attribute to categories, so it will not be displayed by default, you need to select a category, click search, then it will be displayed in the search.

I have followed this solution Custom attribute not showing up in default search form
Yet, I haven’t gotten why an attribute on my website, www.carpoint.co.ke, is not showing on the search form. See screenshots attached.
Hi,
Please check if this attribute is not restricted to a category. Also, make sure that this attribute is added for at least one listing.
I hope this is helpful to you.
Where do I check if the attribute is not restricted to a category?
Hi,
You can see the category restrictions on the right sidebar, as in this screenshot: Awesome Screenshot
It worked. Thanks
