Hi, please check as why my navigation search is not working correctly.

Hi there,

Any chance you can do this first?

And what do you mean it’s not working correctly? I just searched for something and it seems to work?

I cleared the cache, but still doesn’t works. I tried on other browser too, but the same problem.
Whenever I click on to the icon, it shifts to extreme right and then nothing happens. I tired typing and pressing enter to see if it’s working in the background, but nothing happened.
On my other site, the complete navigation changes to plain and we can type our search there which is not happening here on Travelgeeky

Strange, something is setting it to display: none. Try adding this CSS:

.navigation-search.nav-search-active {
    display: block !important;
}

Yeah, now it works well. There is another issue I am facing when switching from non www to www version. I tried changing the Site URL in the wordpress settings to www version but few things became strange. Like, the search icon vanished and a square was displaying instead.
How can I safely switch to www version.

[Tom]

If you change the URL, you need to:

1. Change all URLs on your website with a plugin like this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/velvet-blues-update-urls/
2. Make sure the non-www redirects to www. It shouldn’t be possible to access the site without www (or vice-versa).

Thanks Tom!
