    Hi there!

    I recently launched my site http://www.shiumaieats.com and I’ve been trying to figure out how to add a search bar next to my main menu items at the top right corner.

    Can I edit this in Custom CSS? I’m not familiar with editing PHP.

    I appreciate anyone’s help. Thank you in advance!!!

    Hello shiumai,

    In order to add the search bar next to navigation you need to add the below php function in your theme header.php file inside of div having class=”header-fill” as its php function you cant do anything by editing the css files.

    <?php get_search_form( $echo ); ?>

    Thanks

    Hi Clarion,

    Thank you for your advice! Please correct me if I’m wrong with the following:

    In general, in order to edit the header.php and footer.php files, I need to edit code via Appearance > Editor. However according to my theme developer, I am not supposed to edit here because any theme updates will override changes I make.

    So I downloaded the Insert Headers and Footers plugin and inserted your code to the header settings. I don’t see any search bar after uploading and refreshing. Did I go about this the correct way?
