Hi roppolo,
Create a Child Theme first:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
Then in the Child Theme’s style sheet look for this:
/* Search Form */
#branding #searchform {
position: absolute;
top: 3.8em;
right: 7.6%;
text-align: right;
Add this just below that last line:
display: none;
So the code now looks like:
/* Search Form */
#branding #searchform {
position: absolute;
top: 3.8em;
right: 7.6%;
text-align: right;
display: none;
Hope this helps!
That is one way of doing it. The second would be going in and dropping an empty text widget in. Or by clicking on:
1. Appearance — Editor.
2. Going to sidebar.php
3. Find the code that has search.
4. Delete it.
5. Save.
I dont see it in sidebar.php, Brett… am I missing it?
<?php
/**
* The Sidebar containing the main widget area.
*
* @package WordPress
* @subpackage Twenty_Eleven
* @since Twenty Eleven 1.0
*/
$options = twentyeleven_get_theme_options();
$current_layout = $options['theme_layout'];
if ( 'content' != $current_layout ) :
?>
<div id="secondary" class="widget-area" role="complementary">
<?php if ( ! dynamic_sidebar( 'sidebar-1' ) ) : ?>
<aside id="archives" class="widget">
<h3 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'Archives', 'twentyeleven' ); ?></h3>
<ul>
<?php wp_get_archives( array( 'type' => 'monthly' ) ); ?>
</ul>
</aside>
<aside id="meta" class="widget">
<h3 class="widget-title"><?php _e( 'Meta', 'twentyeleven' ); ?></h3>
<ul>
<?php wp_register(); ?>
<li><?php wp_loginout(); ?></li>
<?php wp_meta(); ?>
</ul>
</aside>
<?php endif; // end sidebar widget area ?>
</div><!-- #secondary .widget-area -->
<?php endif; ?>
