    Is there any way we can make the search shortcode work in a way that the page doesn’t jump to the top when you click the search button?
    Simply just show the results below?

    Thanks

    You can get the search form to jump to a particular part of the page using a #<element-id> where <element-id> is the value of the ID attribute of a HTML element.

    Specifically ensure the container for the search results as an ID, say “foobar”, then edit the search form so that its action targets that element, e.g.

     <form action="#foobar" ... >

    The form can be found in includes/shortcodes.php ~ line 184
