Search box looks different on 2 different sites with same theme

    I’m working with several different blog sites. On one site, the Search box and button have a different layout and color scheme than another site, using the same Theme (Deep Silent).

    I’ve looked through the searchform.php code in both, but could find no differences. I’ve tried to find any differences in the style.css, but no luck. I must be missing something.

    The sites are:
    https://www.resolutionsblog.com (wonky Search layout)
    https://www.gregryanfitness.com (preferred Search layout)

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Melinda

    OK – thanks for the tip.

    I’m still learning my way around html. Could you let me know where I need to go in the code to fix this?

    Thanks,

    my first impression was wrong: the cause is actually a typo in the style sheet:
    (so much for identical themes, one of them seems to have been be edited in some way)
    in resolutionblog, style.css, try and find
    #sidebar ul li #webFrmID ul {border:none;}

    make sure the line is closed with a curly bracket.
    at the moment it is a ordinary closing bracket which confuses all the folowing lines of the css.

    alchymyth,

    That did the trick – everything looks much better. That template has had someone tinkering with it, besides me.

    Thanks so much!

    Have a wonderful and safe New Year!
