CKemp

Just set up a meta description for that page. If you don’t know how to do that manually, use yoast seo plugin.

That’s strange. I tested the theme and that wasn’t the case for me.

Anyway, look at the actual demo page for the theme.

https://demos.bavotasan.com/magazine-basic/

See the fixed top-bar? you can make something like that.

It’s not hard at all.

Just make your own top nav area that spans the page and give it the

position:fixed;

CSS attribute.

And then you can make it widgitized or what ever you like.

But if you haven’t got time or don’t want to learn about that stuff then look for a plugin that round about suits your needs.

WP-TopBar or something.

Oh and that thing on the right you are talking about is not viewable to people that aren’t logged in. It’s the WP Admin bar.

Here is one solution.

Post the following markup directly below :

<nav id=”site-navigation” role=”navigation”>

<div style=”float:right”>
<form method=”get” id=”searchform” action=”https://YOURSITE.com”&gt;
<input type=”text” name=”s” id=”searchbar” value=”CUSTOM TEXT” onblur=”if (this.value == ”) {this.value = ‘CUSTOM TEXT’;}” onfocus=”if (this.value == ‘CUSTOM TEXT’) {this.value = ”;}” /><input type=”submit” id=”searchsubmit” value=”Search” /></form>
</div>

You can change the <div style> to a <div id> and style it properly that way.

oh in the admin bar…wait up a sec. I’ll be back in a minute.

I just installed it and I don’t know what you mean by the icon on the right. I;m not seeing it.

I just installed the theme. It has a widgitized header.

Insert this in a text widget and put it in that widget area.

<form method="get" id="searchform" action="https://YOURSITE.com">
<input type="text" name="s" id="searchbar" value="CUSTOM TEXT" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'CUSTOM TEXT';}" onfocus="if (this.value == 'CUSTOM TEXT') {this.value = '';}" /><input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" /></form>

Exchange “CUSTOM TEXT” with what you want the search bar to say.

Ok and where do you want the search to appear? to the right of the site title? why don’t you just insert a search form in a div, or insert a custom widget area?

Is there no markup in your header.php for the menu?

I can’t really even try to help without seeing everything. All I can figure to do from those functions is to remove the admin bar all together or add a filter or something.

Can you link me to the exact theme you are using?

Is it this one?

Try renaming the folder in ftp or cpanel.

I don’t think anyone will be able to help without seeing the site as well as the css file.

So maybe you can include those?

Adding custom text to search forms is easy enough, as is removing a search bar from your header, and removing a link.

But I can’t really help without seeing your theme files. Can you post them in pastebin or something?
