Does exactly what it says. Just activate and it completely disables all default WordPress search functionality from the frontend.

In 2024, numerous bots are crawling sites, generating significant search spam. Generally, site search incurs high costs, primarily because we end up paying for CPU resources consumed by spam.
If site search is not crucial for your website, I recommend activating this plugin.
Thank you, Scott, for maintaining this simple yet effective plugin!

Love this plugin! Really didn’t want a search bar on my site and this took care of the problem. I have used this plugin for about a year with no hiccups at all. Thank you for developing it!

Thank god I can finally stop hacker wannabes from trying to hack through the search. On and my Google Maps works just fine, so not sure why the other guys does not.

Does a good job of disabling search, but also disables Jetpack slideshow gallery and the Google Maps API (via Unyson builder).

Very useful for certain type of websites!
Is it ok for WP 4.7 and after?

Nice plugin but when using buddypress and you are logged in there still is a search at the right top of your page (wordpress admin bar).

Finally! I tried many times to remove that search from my website! THANK YOU! It saved me time and gives me freedom to customize my website as I wish.

Just installed it, and it appears to work perfect! The biggest thing for me was stopping searches formatted in the URL – e.g. mysite.com/?s=searchterm
And this did the trick! Thank you!

I just wanted a simple plugin to remove the search box in the top menu without the need for editing/removing any code or tampering with my site.
This plugin does exactly what I wanted.
