I have an issue where I have a search bar that searches my database via names and location. This does work. However, I have to actually refresh the page most of the time in order for it to work. I've tried placing it in another page, but it seems as if the issue carries over. Any ideas?

What does "doesn't work" mean? you can be more specific: the url doesn't change? content doesn't change? the results are shown empty? what's shown on the server when you do the request? do you see any error? check the browser's inspector Network tab and see if the response of the request makes sense. Also, your search form has two fields namedsearchandlocationand your search action uses a param with nametermbut the actual Article.search receives the params and uses the right keys (are those keys inside atermkey`?) do you have a view for the search action?

I'm not sure, but it looks like a case for turbolinks messing things up, try disabling it jsut to be sure. Also, you didn't clarify the names conflict, you fetchparams[:term]on the action but the form doesn't have thetermkey. I would also try triggering the submit manually from the console withdocument.querySelector('.search-form form').submit()and see what happens.

What does "doesn't work" mean? you can be more specific: the url doesn't change? content doesn't change? the results are shown empty? what's shown on the server when you do the request? do you see any error? check the browser's inspector Network tab and see if the response of the request makes sense. Also, your search form has two fields namedsearchandlocationand your search action uses a param with nametermbut the actual Article.search receives the params and uses the right keys (are those keys inside atermkey`?) do you have a view for the search action?

I'm not sure, but it looks like a case for turbolinks messing things up, try disabling it jsut to be sure. Also, you didn't clarify the names conflict, you fetchparams[:term]on the action but the form doesn't have thetermkey. I would also try triggering the submit manually from the console withdocument.querySelector('.search-form form').submit()and see what happens.

ArielJuod was right.
I removed Turbolinks from my application.js, gemfile, and from layouts/application. However I did include this line in the layouts/application file:
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "all" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
Now the search bar works right away and the page does not have to be "Refreshed," for it to work. Thanks.

ArielJuod was right.
I removed Turbolinks from my application.js, gemfile, and from layouts/application. However I did include this line in the layouts/application file:
<%= stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "all" %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "application" %>
Now the search bar works right away and the page does not have to be "Refreshed," for it to work. Thanks.

What does "doesn't work" mean? you can be more specific: the url doesn't change? content doesn't change? the results are shown empty? what's shown on the server when you do the request? do you see any error? check the browser's inspector Network tab and see if the response of the request makes sense. Also, your search form has two fields named
searchandlocationand your search action uses a param with nametermbut the actual Article.search receives the params and uses the right keys (are those keys inside atermkey`?) do you have a view for the search action?– arieljuod

Nothing at all happens. The server doesn't show any progress at all, it's almost as if I did not press the search button, but if I refresh the page....it works. I just realize though that when i hit refresh and search...it does work, and if i search again on the page it does work...and keeps working. It appears that it is only not working initially when i go to it. Now i do have the search bar load up at the top of every page.....maybe that is related to my problem? Once I refresh and search and it goes to the results...i can keep filling out the form and searching....

I'm not sure, but it looks like a case for turbolinks messing things up, try disabling it jsut to be sure. Also, you didn't clarify the names conflict, you fetch
params[:term]on the action but the form doesn't have thetermkey. I would also try triggering the submit manually from the console withdocument.querySelector('.search-form form').submit()and see what happens.– arieljuod
