I'm using the tech template, and when inputting a search term in the smart search module (published in top-2) from the home page, it either returns a 404 error, or just reloads the home page.

The homepage component is hidden on my homepage, and I suspect that may have something to do with it. But the tech demo also has the homepage component hidden, and the search works fine on it.

What am I doing wrong?

SOLVED with this fix joomlacode.org/gf/project/joomla/tracker/?action=TrackerItemEdit&tracker_item_id=27884_

Dear Kellen Ellis,

2. go to component manager -> Smart search -> click Index button

Thanks!
