Search box display problem

Please update to 6.7.03 later today and try again.

Thanks for your help

I see that you updated to 6.7.03 and now the input field is gone…

I tested it on weaver-xtreme, weaver-ii is not available.

Are there theme settings with respect to the normal wp search widget?
‘My’ search widget uses the themes search widget html, to look alike as much as possible, and modifies it for photo search, so if in any way the normal wp search widget is modified/made unusable, the photo search widget will be modified/made unusable too.
If you can supply me a link to the weaver ii theme, and i can use it without costs, i will investigate on it.

What also may help is if you temporary add a normal wp search widget to the same sidebar, so i can see how the html looks. This may inspire me to a fix.

Hi
I added the WP search box above the WPPA+ one – it doesn’t work.
There’s nothing I can see in the theme settings that affects search.
Weaver ii needs upgrading but it’s a bit of a long job for which I’m struggling to find the time for lately.
This looks like a source for the original Weaver ii:
https://weavertheme.com/download/
If you want admin access to my site just email me.
Thanks

OK, I’m going to attempt to upgrade the Weaver theme tonight so please wait until I’m done (although there’s a possibility it’ll mash by tomorrow).
Later…

In attempting to convert Weaver ii to the latest version the layout is now somewhat mashed so I’m starting again. Search box will probably display properly when I’m done so thanks, it needed updating. Will be in maintenance mode now for a while.

I have good news for you.
I fixed it for weaver ii (and likely for other mis-behaving themes)

Do the following:
– install the current development version as described here.
– Add to Table IV-A15: Custom style:

.wppa-searchsel-item div input[type="search"] {
width: 80%;
}

and the search photo widget will look the same as the wp search widget.
So you can go back to your original theme.
BTW: Thanks for the link to the theme.

Thanks for your help Jacob. I’ve now upgraded Weaver to the latest version: Weaver Extreme 3.1.8 & am putting the site back together. So far the WPPA search box appears to be working fine. Weaver Extreme & WPPA+ must have between them more settings than half the other plugins/themes put together – literally hundreds. Takes a while to find just the setting required for a small alteration. However, they’re so versatile that I wouldn’t use any other combination.
My site is almost back together save for a few minor tweeks. I’ll post the link when it is.
