Replace Geocraft search functionality with default wp search form

Hello,

I would like to replace geocraft theme search form functionality (home_searchform.php)
with wordpress default search functionality searchform.php, but i want to keep geocraft theme styling.

A quick solution was to change this code in header.php :

<?php
if (file_exists(TEMPLATE_PATH . '/home_searchform.php')):
require_once TEMPLATE_PATH . '/home_searchform.php';
endif;
?>

Changed with :

<?php
if (file_exists(TEMPLATE_PATH . '/searchform.php')):
require_once TEMPLATE_PATH . '/searchform.php';
endif;
?>

It worked fine as i wanted but i lost the styling (css) of Geocraft theme.

I need this because i tested relevanssi plugin and works fine with searching custom fields but it only applies to default wordpress search form.

Can you help me please?

Regards

 

Hello,

Create a div with class "main_search" and paste your search code in it.
Check image for reference.



After that
Paste this code in Custom CSS
Appearance > Theme Option > Styling Option > Custom CSS

Code:

.main_search input[type="text"] {
width: 330px;
background-color: #fff;
font-size: 13px;
height: 30px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
border-radius: 5px;
border: 1px solid #d9d9d9;
padding-left: 10px;
padding-right: 25px;
color: #7f7c7c;
}
