Adding search to top-bar?

[swthate]

Hello,

This may be a silly question. But is there a best way to add a search bar to the top-bar navigation in this theme, without going into functions.php?

How exactly are you trying to implement it, you should be able to simply add the search form using the form structuring here: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_search_form, although you'd still have to adjust the styling based on your layout.

Ah-ha.

Thank you. Been a while, so I'm still clearing out some theme development cobwebs. This is what I was looking for. I had a suspicion it didn't have anything to do with this theme necessarily, but I wasn't sure. Thanks again.

Hello,

I finally made my way back to my search bar. I tried using <?php get_search_form(); ?>, and even after removing the row and column from searchform.php, it's still acting a little odd:

I'm sure it's not necessarily acting odd, but that I'm just missing something.

I tried looking throughout the theme for the correct place to put the call to the form. I settled on top-bar.php:

<section class="top-bar-section">
  <?php foundationpress_top_bar_l(); ?>
  <?php foundationpress_top_bar_r(); ?>
  <?php get_search_form(); ?>
</section>

I'm trying to get the search bar in the right-side section of the top-bar, but I'm not sure on how to do that. My assumption of just plopping the call to the form like I have shown in the above code sample is all wrong... but I can't find where I should be doing that.

Here is what I'm trying to accomplish:

Any help/suggestions/haikus is much appreciated!

Your search form is not being included in the top-bar DIV, from your code.

You can get it working by including a DIV for your search box, in top-bar.php, and defining a specific size for the containing DIV.

<section class="top-bar-section"> <?php foundationpress_top_bar_l(); ?> <?php foundationpress_top_bar_r(); ?> <div class="small-4 large-4 right"> <?php get_search_form(); ?> </div> </section>

I just messed around with it quickly in a sandbox.

Now I see my code is exactly the same as Shackep :S
