Integration with Divi and the search icon on the left of the header menu

  • Hi,

    I really like your plugin and think it is one of the best out there.

    I find difficulties to integrate it with Divi though.

    I can use the shortcode to place a search field anywhere and that’s fine.
    And as it is a highly customizable theme builder it cannot replace the default search fields. That’s understandable.

    But what about the search field that appears when you click on the search icon on the left of the header menu ?

    I thought divi would reuse the default WordPress menu code and that your plugin would be able to override it but it doesn’t seem to work. I find it weird as I’ve seen in other replies on this forum a user for which it seemed to work and was looking for a solution to get focus in the search field (good idea and good solution by the way) https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/trying-to-automatically-set-focus-in-the-search-box/

    Have you any ideas ?

    I’ve also asked Divi support about this one and will post their reply/solution here.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    Well, Divi has a lot of different layouts, and one could work differently from others.
    As long as a theme search bar is printed via the get_search_form function, plugins then are capable of overriding the output of that.
    It is possible however, that some layouts on Divi use an integrated search bar – in most cases these are interactive/roll-down or pop-up searches. In that case the usually the only way to replace them is via a child theme and custom coding.

    Best,
    Ernest M.
