Adding a search button/function to header

Hi there, you’ll need to first create a child theme, otherwise your tweaks will be overwritten every time you update the theme. Here are some guides in case you haven’t made one before:

– The file you’ll need to add the search-form function to in your child theme is header.php.
– You’ll need to call in the search form in your child theme’s header, using a function. Here are a few references to help with your modification:

This should point you in the right direction – good luck!
