Can't style the Searchbar (3 posts)

    Hi,

    Strangely, my searchform doesn't seem to be reading from "searchform.php".

    In the Theme Editor I changed the submit button's text from "Submit" to "Go" and it didn't update on my site.

    Any ideas why my site is not pulling its search from searchform.php?

    Thanks!

    When you go back it is in fact changed in that file? If you don't have permissions set correctly it may not in fact be updating?

    Solved. I had to edit widgets.php (in wp-includes) and make sure I had input class="button" before anything would work. Editing the searchform.php wasn't doing anything. Strange.
