Hello,
Thank you for contacting us and sorry for any inconvenience that might have been caused due to that.
This is most likely an issue with your Breadcrumb search result format and you can usually fix this by adding %s to the Search Results Format in your Breadcrumb settings:
1. Go to Rank Math > General Settings > Breadcrumbs in your WordPress dashboard.
2. Find the option that says Search Results Format and change it to Search for %s or anything else that has %s in it.
3. Save your changes and clear your website’s cache.
4. Check if the search page is working properly now.
Let us know how it goes. Looking forward to helping you.
Thank you.
