    Hi there,
    Could you please help me with the implementation of Google custom search in place of WP default search? Most online tutorials suggests replacing codes in searchform.php with gcs codes and then placing a sidebar search widget. But I need a complete replacement to use gcs for the menu search form that is there in your theme. Please help.
    Thanks and regards.

    Another thing.
    I have discontinued comments on posts. But existing comments are showing up there. Can you suggest which code lines are to be removed from which templates to hide existing comments and comment links in archive page post meta areas.
    [I know I can do that using CSS. But that’s not a good solution. I have also created a child theme that can serve my purpose.]
    Thanks and regards.

    Well, I have finally implemented Google Custom Search, thanks to this tutorial at Techwelkin. I am posting this because it may help others searing for similar things. It works on other themes too.

    Well, I removed the comments too by removing comments template from single.php and entry-header.php
    Anyway, thanks to the developer for your good works. Keep it up.
