• Hello guys, I am doing some work with the widgets, the search widget works great with the wordpress themes (as expected!…what?) But with mine it does nothing once the button is clicked.

    So I assume that the search widget does not know where to output the search content?

    I created the bare WordPress website with no content other then what is needed.

    Does it create it onto a single-page.php or searchpage.php of some kind? I can’t find much online on how to get it to work.

    This is the code on the homepage

    <?php get_header(); ?>
    
    	<?php if ( !function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') || !dynamic_sidebar('header_sidebar') ) : 
    
    endif; ?>
    
    <?php get_footer(); ?>

    Here is my functions.php

    <?php function wpgyan_widgets_init() {
    
    	register_sidebar( array(
    		'name' => 'Header Sidebar',
    		'id' => 'header_sidebar',
    		'before_widget' => '<div>',
    		'after_widget' => '</div>',
    		'before_title' => '<h2 class="rounded">',
    		'after_title' => '</h2>',
    	) );
    }
    add_action( 'widgets_init', 'wpgyan_widgets_init' );
    
    ?>

    this is about as far as I have gotten!

    Any help would be a great help
