    Hi Enfold,

    I added a search bar to my site ‘s header using “Append search icon to main menu
    If enabled a search Icon will be appended to the main menu that allows the users to perform an ‘AJAX’ Search”

    It works well but the drop down upon clicking the magnifier says “Search”. How can i change it to another text? Thanks

    Hey ex0rcist88,

    Thank you for using our theme.

    Please add following code to Functions.php file of your child theme (or parent theme, if not using a child theme)- you can use Dashboard -> Appearance > Editor and change ‘My Search’:

    
add_filter('avf_frontend_search_form_param', my_frontend_search_form_param, 10, 1 );

function my_frontend_search_form_param( array $params )
{
	$params['placeholder'] = __('My Search','avia_framework');
	
	return $params;
}

    Best regards,
    Günter

    Hello Günter,

    I dont see My search. Only Loop-Search, Search Form, Search Results under Editor. Tried adding the above to Search Form but didn’t seem to work. Which file is it exactly and where do I add it?

    Thanks

    It looks like this function will cause a PHP error

    PHP Warning: Use of undefined constant my_frontend_search_form_param – assumed ‘my_frontend_search_form_param’ (this will throw an Error in a future version of PHP)

    Anyone else get this?

    Hi,

    The functions.php code is helpful for editing the search box placeholder. However, we have a custom search box in a widget and then the traditional search icon on the navigation menu. How would I reference the css in the functions.php to edit only one of the search boxes?

    Please see private content for the URL of the website where we have the search magnifying glass on the nav menu and want to keep the word ‘search’ in the box there. Further down on the home page beneath the Layerslider is a large search box widget. We want the placeholder to be empty here. We used the code you recommended but it blanks out both placeholders.

    Hi,

    @GWS Please use following code instead

    function av_delete_search_text(){
?>
<script>
jQuery(window).load(function(){
jQuery("#search-3 input").attr("placeholder", "");
});
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'av_delete_search_text');

    Best regards,
