Hi!
Looking in WordPress dashboard, for the pinpress theme’s widget area, there seems to only be one area that one can add the search widget to– the Main Sidebar. But when one adds the search widget there and refreshes the home page, It doesn’t seem to make the search bar show up anywhere. (in other words, it doesn’t look like there’s a way to, from the dashboard, customize how the search form shows up)
Poking through the theme’s header.php and footer.php files, there are references to
get_search_form();
And then using Safari’s developer tools, the inspector, there’s reference that in the style.css was set to this:
.searchform_headercover{display:none;}
Based on the points above, it looks like it’s going to take some coding in order to make the search bar show up nicely at the top of the form. I’d recommend some options might be:
– contact the theme developer to try and get help making these changes to the theme, or
– try to code the changes yourself, for example make a child theme and try to find out which files (.php,.css, etc.) to modify to make it look right
What do you think?
