Search not working Magento 1.9 rwd theme - magento

I am using magento RWD theme for my project and have made some customization in the theme.
But my search is not working in it.
Few things I have tried are:-
Reindexing data.
Flush magento cache.
Went to System > Configuration > Catalog > Catalog Search and set Search Type to Combine (Like and Fulltext)
http://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/7335/magento-search-not-working
All are of no avail.
I have created a gist of required files.

Can Anyone point out the error?

I have found out many solutions to it and created a blog to how I solved this issue.

Configurable product options not showing the options on Frontend

I am having problems with the configurable products not showing the options on the frontend. If I use the default theme that came with magento (rwd), all the options are there and working great. But if I select my custom theme, the dropdown options shows nothing but the default "choose an option..."
I have tried most of the troubleshooting but still the problem persist.
Console errors.
By the way, my custom theme is based on rwd built-in theme in magento. I only modified most of the styles and copied some phtml from the base folder.
This problem took me a day to figure out what was wrong and now I finally have an answer to my own problem.
Great Tip: Always check for jquery conflicts for this type of issue. thanks to #Chiragit007 for the hint.

Magento: Reviews and ratings not showing in backend

My version of Magento is 1.8.1.0. The problem is that I cannot see the "Reviews and Ratings" link under Catalog. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
I have recently upgraded from Magento 1.6.2 to 1.8.1.0.
Thank you very much.
Check System > Configuration > Advanced > Advanced and see if Mage_Review is enabled there. If it's not there at all, check that there's a Mage_Review.xml in app/etc/modules.
If it's enabled and still not showing, you may be missing some Adminhtml .xml files.

Magento catalog filter issue

I am using Magento 1.7.0.2 and have set up a new store from scratch. (Have done this before with older versions)
I have been trying to get catalog product filters in my sidebar without any luck. I know this has been asked over and over and the simple answer is to set the 'Is Anchor' option to 'Yes' in the Category setup. I have also set 'Use in Layered Navigation' to 'Filterable (with results)' for all attributes I want to use as filters. Still, the filters do not show up in my sidebar.
When displaying the path hints in my other store, the filters are rendered in 'frontend/default/MY_THEME/template/catalog/layer/view.phtml' but in the new store it looks like this template does not show up at all when showing path hints.
If anyone could point me into the right direction of where to look or how to start finding out what is going on I would be very grateful as I have been stuck for two days now.
After quite some time of researching as well as trial and error I have found that in my case the issue was caused by disabling Flagbit_FactFinder in System > Configuration > Advanced > Disable Modules Output. So if you are having similar problems go to your magento admin panel and check the setting mentioned above.

Magento: Multi-column dropdown menu

I'm using Magento CE 1.6.
Briefly: I found exactly what I'm looking for here, but it seems like it doesn't work for Magento version 1.6; it's unzipped in the Magento catalog and enabled in the administration panel, but the menu doesn't change at all.
If there's no solution for this extension, is there any free alternative?
Thank you in advance!
Solution found: Ensure that the files in the extension goes to the "base" package catalogs; otherwise it will only affect the "default" package.

Cant see any page on magento

I am facing the following problem
http://www.theprinterdepot.net/hp-5000dn-printer-refurbished.html
all product pages are blank, but if you go to the homepage, or a category page or a search results page its working.
ini errors in enabled so I have no idea where to look for the error.
I solved this my self after clearing all magento cache. I also had to put the old theme I was using, the creators of the theme told me that it only allows magento 1.4.1.1 to 1.5.1.1 and my installation was 1.4.0.1.
I think that was the problemm
