[Resolved] Move search icon to header

[russel]

I tried this method: https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/move-the-search-icon-to-the-header/

But it doesn’t work at my end: https://darkfaqs.com/

Could someone provide assistance?

Hi there,

Not sure if I fully understand.

What exactly are you trying to achieve?

Can you activate the navigation search first?

[russel]

Already activated it but didn’t do anything.

here’s the feature that I want

Hi Russel,

Can you provide admin login credentials? We’ll take a closer look at the issue.

Please use the Private Information field for this: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-premium-support-forum/#private-information

Thank you!

1. Go to Appearance > Widgets, and delete the Search Widget in the Right Sidebar. Example: https://share.getcloudapp.com/geuOygA2

2. As for the GP Search Icon not working, can you first create a menu in Appearance > Menus? Then, assign it to your Primary Menu or Off Canvas menu. Reference: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/using-the-wordpress-menu-builder/

If this doesn’t do anything, try #1 here: https://docs.generatepress.com/article/debugging-tips/

I got all the steps working. But How do I make a functional search menu with an icon?

[Fernando]

It’s still not appearing. Have you tried disabling all non-GP plugins?

If not, can you try it?

[russel]

I disabled all plugins except for code snippets and GP premium.

Still not working

[Fernando]

You have this Snippet:

add_action( 'wp', function() {
    if ( 'enable' === generate_get_option( 'nav_search' ) ) {
        remove_action( 'generate_menu_bar_items', 'generate_do_navigation_search_button' );
        add_action( 'generate_secondary_menu_bar_items', 'generate_do_navigation_search_button' );

        remove_action( 'generate_inside_navigation', 'generate_navigation_search' );
        add_action( 'generate_inside_secondary_navigation', 'generate_navigation_search' );
    }
}, 20 );

Disable or remove this to make it appear.

[russel]

It works now!

Did you set up some css code or something?

I just disabled things and it just suddenly show up on the headers.

[Fernando]

No, I didn’t change anything on your site.

Glad it’s appearing now!

[russel]

okay then.

How do I move it?

it is blocking the hamburger thing whenever I try to search

[Fernando]

Where would you like to move it?

[russel]

If it’s possible, I want the header to be position like this

just the header, ignore the content
