Add Widget to Menu

Hi Toby

It might be worth trying this plugin out before we dive into a child theme and custom widget area: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bop-search-box-item-type-for-nav-menus/. Let me know how it goes.

I really like this add on, just wished there was some documentation about how to edit the appearance, etc. Really need that search field and button on the same line.

Sure, let’s try:

.bop-nav-search {
	margin: 1px 0;
}

.bop-nav-search label,
.bop-nav-search .search-submit {
	display: inline-block;
	font-size: 13px;
}

.bop-nav-search label {
	margin-bottom: 0;
}

That works great! Your attention to detail is greatly appreciated, thanks!!

Super 🙂 Glad to hear that did the trick. Cheers.

now I’m wondering…any way to customize the search returns? They seem a bit odd…

If you edit say this page, have you manually entered an excerpt of three periods?

I’m sorry, not exactly sure what you’re asking. I’m not sure where the three periods are coming from.

Edit the page, click Screen Options top right, is the Excerpt field enabled? If not, enable it, scroll down to the Excerpt field, is there anything in it? Mmm probably not, this might be an auto excerpt issue when using Page Builder. Will probably need to come back to you on this one tomorrow.

If you manually enter an excerpt it’ll sort this out. I’ll come back to you tomorrow with an auto solution.

Sure, that’s fine…sometime tomorrow would be great.

Don’t see an option for an Excerpt field…

My bad, that’s for posts. Clearly working too late. Let me work something up tomorrow. Chat then!

Hi Toby. Can you please, check that the following setting is enabled:

Settings > Page Builder > Content > Copy Content

Sorry, it’s taken me a while to get back to this…yes, it’s enabled. However, I get the same result.

Mmm! Ok, next test let’s temporarily switch to a default WordPress theme (Twenty Sixteen/Seventeen etc.) and run a search. Are the results the same?
