Search Type 6 allows you to display categories as tabs inside the advanced search form.
Each tab can represent a different taxonomy (such as Property Type, Category, City, Area, or State) and can have:

  • Its own set of search fields
  • Different minimum and maximum price values
  • A dedicated tab label

This search type is ideal when you want users to quickly switch between different listing contexts, such as rentals vs sales,
or different property types.

Elementor Search Form Builder – Important Note

If you use the Elementor Search Form Builder widget on specific pages, please note the following:

  • The global Advanced Search Type selected in Theme Options still applies.
  • Search fields are configured inside the Elementor widget and do not sync with the search fields set in Theme Options.
  • Changes made in Theme Options → Search → Advanced Search Form will not affect Elementor-based search forms.
  • Button styling (colors, padding, typography, alignment) is controlled entirely from the widget’s Style tab.
  • This setup allows full page-level customization without changing global search settings.
