 * for reference my website is [http://www.partytacos.com](http://www.partytacos.com)
 * I would like to remove the search bar from the top of the page. I really have
   no use for it. Once its removed I would like to add my phone number in its place.
   If I can add the phone number not a big deal but I really want the search bar
   removed.

 * Hi,
 * Firstly check if you get any option from your theme setting to hide it .
 * or
 * Delete this code from your site to remove search bar-
 * <div class=”search-bar col-lg-12 col-sm-12 col-6″>
    <div class=”input-group”>
   <span class=”input-group-btn”> <button class=”btn btn-primary” type=”submit” 
   name=”submit” id=”searchsubmit” value=”Search”>Search</button> </span> <input
   type=”text” class=”form-control field” name=”s” id=”s”> </div><!– /input-group–
   > </div>

 * There isnt an option to remove it in settings.
 * I looked for the code but it is not around. I tried deleting it from the style
   sheet and it remains once its deleted.
 * The code you posted above, I could not find.

 * Hello,
 * You need to try this in your Custom CSS for achieving that:
 *     ```
       header .head-top #searchform {
           display: none;
       }
       ```
   
 * Hope that helps. Thank you.

 * Thanks that worked!
 * I once worked on a website and I was able to text in the header, where the search
   bar was. I took the code from another site I had seen, since then I took the 
   site down to re-do it and I dont know the code. Do you know the code to add text
   into the header?

 * Hello,
 * Please go to your Appearance > Widgets and look for if there is a header widget
   there provided by your theme. If not then you need to add that manually in the
   header.php file.
 * For adding it in header.php you need to go to Appearance > Editor > header.php
   and look for this line or something like that:
 *     ```
       </div>
       </header>
       ```
   
 * You need to add this code above that line:
 *     ```
       <div class="customHeader">
       Your Text here
       </div>
       ```
   
 * It will show under your navigation space.
 * Make sure to use a Child Theme when you are editing core files. Otherwise all
   your changes will be lost on update.
 * Thank you.
