Search results page works but article pager styling broken

Scenario

The search feature functions, but the results page layout looks broken or difficult to navigate.

Recommended Resolution Path

1. Inspect the theme styling applied to search result templates and pager components.
2. Compare the markup between node listings and search results.
3. Check whether recent CSS cleanup accidentally dropped a search-specific selector.
4. Fix the results page so search remains a first-class path through the site.

Technician Notes

Confirm the result, document the root cause, and record any preventative action worth standardizing.
