Search box not aligned with menu bar

    This plugin meets a need I have had for a long time. I’m glad to have found it. It functions well, but there’s an appearance problem for me.

    The box and button are about 1 millimeter larger than the menu bar, and so, while they are mostly aligned, they extend below the bar. Is there css that would shrink them about 10%? That would be enough to solve the problem, I think.

    One other appearance improvement, I think, would be to have the search right-aligned in the menu, rather than aligned with the last menu item.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Thank you for your generous support.

    I am not seeing any error.

    I wonder if this may be the source of your problem. We use Cloudflare to serve our pages. I don’t know your location, but based on your country location, you may be connecting through a Cloudflare server in a country that we blocked due to concerns about hacking.

    What may be helpful is to go to a proxy server and from there, type in our url.

    https://www.lifewire.com/free-anonymous-web-proxy-servers-818058 lists 9 free proxy servers.

    I tried them all. One that worked correctly for me was https://www.megaproxy.com/freesurf/

    Some of the others made the primary menu 6 inches tall, but if you scroll you will see the secondary menu where I placed the search button. One didn’t support https, waas useless.

    The shared proxy server worked for me and now i can access your site.

    You can achieve this by adding the below CSS code in the Custom CSS option of Add Search To Menu plugin settings on the path Settings -> Add Search To Menu

    
li.astm-search-menu {
    float: right !important;
    padding-right: 10px;
}

#subnavbar div {
    max-width: 100% !important;
    width: 100%;
}

li.astm-search-menu #searchsubmit {
    padding: 3px 10px;
}

li.astm-search-menu #s {
    padding: 6px 8px;
}

    You are most welcome, I’m glad I was able to help you in this matter. There is no obligation but by your kind words I wonder if I could trouble you to leave a review based on this experience here:

    And if i can be of any further assistance please don’t hesitate to ask.
