Solr Search not intercepting default search box

[jennyshk]

Hi there,

Sorry for cross posting if this has already been raised.

I've installed Omeka plugin Solr Search on a server and configured the plugin to connect to the Solr instance that is installed on another separate server. Once I save the configurations the plugin confirms the connection details are valid, I then reindex the entire site. All seems fine except when I try to do a search in the Omeka skin's default search box it returns the default search results when I should be getting the solr-search results eg https://repository.erc.monash.edu/solr-search?q=photograph

Why is Solr Search not intercepting the user's search? Am I missing a configuration somewhere and/or do I need to do some

updates/configurations?

I've tested this on another Omeka instance using the same server configuration to the Solr instance on the same server and it manages to intercept the user's search query ok and return solr search results.

Any advice would be great!

Regards,
Jenny
