 * Our site is growing quickly and we would like to have a search function available
   for users. How do I add a search box on/near the header or menu bar?
 * Thanks,

 * Add Search widget to your **Header Widgets** in Widget tab of WordPress under
   Appearance.

 * [@yolandat](https://wordpress.org/support/users/yolandat/): I really do not know
   yet; I think it would be better if you ask your question in a new post. I think
   then would be answered more quickly.

 * Thank you!
    When I was trying to put it in the right side of the menu, i can’t
   do it.
 * Now is ok in the top
    Congratulations for your theme, it is very useful for me.
   It’s my first work with WordPress.
 * Perhaps I’am going to need your help these days.

 * Hi Yolanda you site looks great. How did you get your search bar there on the
   homepage and also make it smaller?
