HowTo Search Box in header ?

[icewalker]

Hi,

I use cutline-3-column-split-11 on a wp 2.7

The search box is on the left side placed by a widget.

Is there any way to add it in the header left or right side.

Thank you in advance

Edit header.php under Appearance > Editor then find this line:

PHP Code:

<li class="rss"><a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>">Subscribe</a></li>

After it, add this line:

PHP Code:

<li><?php get_search_form(); ?></li>

You might have to do a bit of CSS tweaking to display correctly though.

I was able to place the search bar in the header! many thanks!!

I want to slide the box all the way to the right, and place the rss button, just to the left of the box..

Many thanks!!!

Add a class to the <li> of your search, like so:

PHP Code:

<li class="search"><?php get_search_form(); ?></li>

And instead of putting it AFTER the RSS <li>, put it BEFORE.

Then give it a float: right in your style.css file:

ul#nav li.search { float: right; padding: 0.5em 0 0 1em; }

Right before this line:

ul#nav li.rss { padding: 0.85em 0 0.7em 0; float: right; }
