 * Kindly add the following CSS code in your theme’s style.css file and check by
   clearing your browser cache.
 * `input[name=q] {display: none !important;}`
 * Hope, this solved your issue!

 * Hi, the css code did hide the “keyword” field but left a space where it used 
   to be.
    So I’ve edited the search template file and placed `style="display:none;"`
   in that input field.
 * Maybe an option to show or hide that field can added in the future.
 * Thank you!

 * [@djlo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/djlo/) can you be specific as to 
   where you put that `style="display:none;"` code and your additional code `style
   ="display:none;"` ? Can you maybe include the part of the stack where you placed
   it? I am currently trying to accomplish the same thing.
 * Thanks!

 * [@realstash](https://wordpress.org/support/users/realstash/) I had to modify 
   a couple files in order to hide the “keyword” field.
 * But before you modify anything it is recommended to follow these steps here –
   
   [https://pluginsware.com/documentation/customizing-acadp-templates/](https://pluginsware.com/documentation/customizing-acadp-templates/)
   So that you won’t lose the changes when the plugin updates.
 * I’ve modified acadp-public-search-form-inline-display.php and acadp-public-search-
   form-vertical-display.php so both the search widget and the search page won’t
   have “keyword”.
 * In those files you can find the “keyword” field and add `style="display:none;"`
   to it.
 * Hope this helps.
