    Hi Kriesi,

    I like to have the search field (box) in the menubar instead of a drop down on click of icon. Can you please tell me the changes that would be required?

    And I need the field to be in the middle of the menu items. Is it possible to have search field in the middle of the menu items , instead of appending at the last?

    Thanks,
    Neven

    Hi fsatechnology!

    I didn’t test the modification but you should be able to replace the icon with the search form. In functions-enfold.php replace

    
	    if ((is_object($args) && $args->theme_location == 'avia') || (is_string($args) && $args = "fallback_menu"))
	    {
	        global $avia_config;
	        ob_start();
	        get_search_form();
	        $form =  htmlspecialchars(ob_get_clean()) ;

	        $items .= '<li id="menu-item-search" class="noMobile menu-item menu-item-search-dropdown"><a href="?s=" data-avia-search-tooltip="'.$form.'" '.av_icon_string('search').'></a></li>';
	    }
	    return $items;

    with

    
	    if ((is_object($args) && $args->theme_location == 'avia') || (is_string($args) && $args = "fallback_menu"))
	    {
	        global $avia_config;
	        ob_start();
	        get_search_form();
	        $form =  htmlspecialchars(ob_get_clean()) ;

	        $items .= '<li id="menu-item-search-form" class="noMobile menu-item">'.$form.'</li>';
	    }
	    return $items;

    However the function does not allow you to place the search form in anywhere you want to – you can only insert it at the very beginning or at the very end of the menu.

    Regards,

    Hi Peter,

    Thanks for the help. The code worked except for small change.

    I replaced

    $form = htmlspecialchars(ob_get_clean()) ;

    with

    $form = ob_get_clean() ;

    Thanks and regards,
    Neven
