    Hello,

    I’m creating a new website (still local) and using your plugin. It’s very helpful for most of my pages.
    Now I’ve got a problem. I’m also using the plugin ‘search box on navigation menu’. When adding a menu to a custom sidebar, the search box also shows up in the sidebar. Not when i use another widget in the sidebar, only a menu.

    Maybe you can help me so that the search box won’t show in the sidebar?

    Thanks in advance,

    Angela

  • Hi Angela,

    I hope you are well today.

    I think you are using the following ‘search box on navigation menu’ plugin.

    I used the above plugin on my test site and could reproduce the issue but it has nothing to do with the Custom Sidebars plugin as it’s also displaying the search form at the end of the menu widget in the default sidebar without using Custom Sidebars plugin.

    I would like to help you to remove the search form added at the end of the sidebar. You can do this by adding the following code in the functions.php file of your child theme or add it in your site using the following plugin.

    remove_filter('wp_nav_menu_items','add_search_box');
add_filter('wp_nav_menu_items','custom_search_box', 10, 2);
function custom_search_box($items, $args) {

        ob_start();
        get_search_form();
        $searchform = ob_get_contents();
        ob_end_clean();
        if( $args->theme_location != '' ){
            $items .= '<li>' . $searchform . '</li>';
        }

    return $items;
}

    Best Regards,
