[Resolved] Is There A Way To Add Search Box To A Page?

[JOHN]

Hello,
Using Catalyst from the site library.

Is there a way to add a search box to a page? I found a couple plugins that will do the job, but wondering if there is another way.

I have a site with about 50 businesses on it. I want to have a “search” page so visitors can search for a business by name.

Hi John,

If I understand the question correctly, this should help:

Let me know 🙂

Where do I put that code? I created a blank page, created a block and entered the code in that block. But just the code shows up when I hit preview.

I’m thinking I just want something like the Google page: https://www.google.com/

Expcept I would use my site name and have the search box under it.

I think this can also be done with google custom search where you can limit searches to just your site.

Adding PHP: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-php/

Then just add the shortcode [search] in your content.

That worked! Thanks

No problem 🙂
