In reply to: Modifying the search filed – icon instead of search word?I was thinking if changing the word search to a magnifying glass icon isn’t possible, perhaps I could adjust the width of the input field?

In reply to: [Kyma] How do I add search to the header page?If I change the line to this – the appearance is exactly the way I want it but the search does not work
<p> <span <?php get_search_form(); ?> </span> <p><span class=”icon-phone”></span>315555551212</p>
This lets me enter text but when I click on search it doesn’t do anything.If I change the line to this – the search works but the formatting is off – it puts the number under the search instead of next to it <p> <?php get_search_form(); ?> <span class=”icon-phone”></span>315555551212</p>

In case anyone comes across this the solution for me was to remove the sidebar (in just the search results page) which cluttered the search results page.
I did this by editing the search results in theme editor and going to my template parts php file and removing it there. There might be a better way of doing it but that worked for me.

OK – thanks.

In reply to: Search not searching the content of my postsUpdate – I was wrong it does indeed return the stuff from other pages however you have to scroll way down on the page to see it – there is a lot of white space – not sure why. It only shows the first item it finds at the top of the page – to the left on the common items on the right.
I think it has something to do with the right hand side common items on all post pages. It seems to show additional posts found in the search after the bottom of the right hand column (although the results are in the center of the page).

In reply to: Search not searching the content of my postsThanks. I’ll get back to you tomorrow. I don’t mean to seem paranoid but I was told years ago you should never post your website info on developer forums. I realize I’ve changed a lot of content of my new test website and I’m wondering if it just takes a while to index.
I didn’t develop my web page but it looks like the pluggins are
Advanced Custom Files
Form Maker
GS Testimonial Lite
My Bootstrap Menu
WP Custom Widget Area
Yoast SEOI noticed if I go to search posts I have no problem finding all the pages that have those acronyms in them.

In reply to: Can’t find how to edit the top of my web pageThanks – I got looking through the custom theme and found the theme files with the header.php.
I appreciate it!
I’d like to change the code but have no idea how of
<div class=”row”>
<div class=”col-md-6 logo”><!– logo –>
/images/mydomain-logo.jpg” alt=”My Company Name”>
</div>
<div class=”col-md-6 headercontact”><!– Contact Number – Telephone –>
<p><span class=”icon-phone”></span>555.555.1212</p>
</div>so that the part where it says </span>555.555.1212 – isn’t actually text but a picture of my phone number so that it hopefully might reduce the amount of spam calls I get. Not sure if it would help or not.

In reply to: Can’t login to wp-adminThanks. I did look at it and while I’m not trying to be obtuse I couldn’t follow it.
I’m on godaddy. From the administration screen to go menu – go to users all users – I’m seeing that – I went to cpanel, user manager. I changed my account that was listed there. When I go to wp-amdin and enter that password the little login shakes and prompts me again.
I’ve gone to the wordpress blogtmp/wp-admin page and clicked on lost password – I put in my email address – it does not give any error but I’m not receiving any email – I’ve checked my spam filter.
I don’t know what the MD5 thing is – I’m running Windows – it feels like it assumes I’m familiar with how to get into mysql. I did find phpmyadmin in godaddy – and i did find a bunch of tables.
I might try others but thought I should check first – if I make a backup of all the files under the blogtmp directory – and I mess up something with php admin – will copying them back fix any php mysql things that might have changed?

In reply to: Slow site on first visitThanks! I’ll ask the developer and find out for you. So knowing absolutely nothing about plugins – if my site is unlikely to change much other than minor changes every couple of months – do some plugins let you have it hold the cache longer so the first person on my site each day doesn’t have to wait too long? Or is that somehow controlled by the web hosting company?
