Specifying the id of exisiting search box

    On the general settings page where it says Search Input ID or class name, I put #panelsearchform (the ID of my theme’s searchform) and ajaxy does not work on the site. I tried .panelsearchform, and #searchform and .searchform, but no luck.

    I might be looking at the wrong div or class to find the ID, but if not there may be an error.

    I am using dynamix theme with buddypress on wordpress 3.5.1

    Thank You

    you must specify the id or classname of the input box and not the parent, i.e the text box (where you put the text)

    I’m using this plugin

    But by the properties of the theme I’m using, fixed navigation bar at the screen. I want my search results box also fixed and mounted with navigation bar

    thats not possible right now, the results will be hidden when scrolling

    hungken add this to the ajaxy css and it will stay fixed

    #sf_sb {position:fixed !important;}
    or
    .sf_sb {position:fixed !important;}

    I’m not sure if this is what you were asking, but I just tried it and it works fine for me

    So I am trying to use the existing search box in my theme without messing with its existing look. I have tried using the search ID of the input box but it still replaces it with the Ajaxy search box and formatting. Is there a way around that or am i missing something?

    if your theme have already a search form, you should see a file in the theme directory called searchform.php, donot rename it if you are planing to use your theme search box instead of ajaxy search box, use the Id setting instead.

    I used the ID setting. What I did is chose the ID for the input form field of the themes search box. Still it replaces the whole search box with the Ajaxy one. I just want to regular themes search box. Any way I can get that?

    check if you have searchform.php in your theme folder

    I tried doing this but it still replaces the look and style of my themes search box with the Ajax style search box. Can I stop that?

    did you rename the searchform.php file?

    Is there a way to attach an invisible tag to a page or post, so if the text of the tag is searched for that page or post will come up in the results..?
