    Hello,

    I’m new to your WP Google Search plugin. I have the plugin installed and configured with my API Key. When logged in as the WP Admin I have no problem using the plugin. When I’m not logged in I encounter an “Oops! That page can’t be found.” page. When I go to the URL below whiled logged in as WP Admin, I see the page. When I’m not logged in the URL below gives me the same error. Could this be a permissions related issue?

    Hello,
    I tried the search on the given link, it works without problems if I’m not logged in. The search box and the result set is displayed.

    Hello,

    Thank you for checking. It is now working. Not sure why I encountered the initial error.

    I am having basically the same issue, except, I am sure it is NOT permissions. When doing a search from the widget I get the exact issue. It only works when logged in and the widget goes to the page “http://www.mwsolut.com/search_gcse/?q=item searched”. When not not logged in the search from the widget does not work, and it also goes to “http://www.mwsolut.com/search_gcse/?q=item searched”. However doing doing a search from the page “http://www.mwsolut.com/search_gcse/” using the search embedded with in the page content does NOT take me to “http://www.mwsolut.com/search_gcse/?q=item searched”. Instead it takes me to “http://www.mwsolut.com/?s=item+searched”. The URL differs as does the handling of the information placed into the search bar. In the widget does not replace spaces between the words with a “+” between each word entered into the search, but also adds “search_gcse/?q=” to the URL. The search page instead adds “?s=” followed by the words entered into the search bar, but replaces all spaces with “+”. I am leaving the widget in place so you can see the results.

    I created a search using custom HTML widget for the WP Google Search and it works fine. I called it “HTML Google Search”, and used the following html:

    <form action=”/” method=”get”>
    <input type=”text” name=”s”><input type=”submit” value=”Submit”>
    </form>

    This works but the widget from the plugin does not. Go to my site to see what I mean…

    P.S. The Google Search called “HTML Google Search” is my widget. The one further down was already there after installing WP Google Search.

    I can’t see the problem on your site. I’ve entered a search term in the search field of Google Search widget and the results have appeared without any problem.
    Of course I was not logged in. So I don’t know how to reproduce this situation.
