Hide Search Bar?

[MissMaria]

How do I hide the search bar? I'd like to take it off the site completely.

Thank you!

Which theme?

AvaraMu.

Sorry I forgot to include that!

Can't find it on the Theme Site. Better post a link to your site, or attach the index.template.php.

I'd guess this one:
http://custom.simplemachines.org/themes/index.php?lemma=682


Remove this from the index.template.php file of that theme:

Code Select Expand

<div id="search">';
echo '
<form action="', $scripturl, '?action=search2" method="post" accept-charset="', $context['character_set'], '" style="margin: 0;">
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=search;advanced" title="', $txt['smf298'], '"><img src="'.$settings['images_url'].'/filter.gif" align="middle" style="margin: 0 1ex;" alt="', $txt['smf298'], '" /></a>
<input type="text" class="inputs" name="search" value="Search..." style="width: 120px;" />
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="', $txt[182], '" class="submit" style="width: 10ex;" />
<input type="hidden" name="advanced" value="0" />';

// Search within current topic?
if (!empty($context['current_topic']))
echo '
<input type="hidden" name="topic" value="', $context['current_topic'], '" />';

// If we're on a certain board, limit it to this board ;).
elseif (!empty($context['current_board']))
echo '
<input type="hidden" name="brd[', $context['current_board'], ']" value="', $context['current_board'], '" />';
echo '
</form>
</div>';

Good catch.

Style.css:

Code Select Expand

#search {
float: right;
margin-right: 15px;
margin-top: 5px;
font-family: Tahoma, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size: 11px;
clear: both;
}

Change to:

Code Select Expand

#search {
display: none;
}

That will certainly hide it, but depending on what else is up there some other things might move around too. Try it and see.
