Hah, it seems to be a popular question, to which nobody posted the answer yet. I am looking for the same thing.
it should be there
if not, download wordpress and grab it from the default theme
LOL Me too… for a moment I though I was nuts. I spent hours trying to figure out where the search widget is getting pulled from…
WP automatically generates a form if no searchform.php exists. It’s easy enough to create one though. Just create searchform.php and add this code:
<div class="search">
<form method="get" class="search-form" id="search-form" action="<?php bloginfo( 'home' ); ?>/">
<div>
<input class="search-text" type="text" name="s" id="search-text" value="Search this site" />
<input class="search-submit" type="submit" name="submit" id="search-submit" value="Search" />
</div>
</form>
</div>
Ditto, ditto. Pretty jokes the form is still on my page. Truly blackbox action going on here!
Creating a searchform.php file worked.
Thanks buddies.
enjoy 🙂
Awesome, thanks. I too was looking for a searchform.php and this thread solved it for me.
