Search icon within sidebar

[Aschutte]

Hi there,
I’m using the demo content ‘education’ within my site. However I can not find the ‘magnifying glass’ type of 'search icon/button within the purple sidebar. I think I have to select / enable it somewhere within Ubermenu. But I don’t know how. Can you help me?

Thanks in advance, Arjen

Hello Arjen,

Thanks for writing in!

The search menu item can be enabled in X > Theme Options > Header > Search.

We would loved to know if this has work for you. Thank you.

Thank you for your quick response!

I checked on your advice; and I indeed think, this must be it.
However, within X > Theme Options > Header, Navbar search is on (and green). And still the icon does not appear in my sidebar menu…

The various options withing X > Theme Options > Header do not respond the same after changing. For instance, when I change the ‘font size’ or any other option within ‘Link - text’ nothing changes. And when I change ‘Navbar positon’ from fixed left to fixed right, it does change correctly. So, maybe at this moment not every Navbar option change does work correctly of some are influenced by other options within the X-thema?

Any further thoughts?

Hi Arjen,

I see that you have enabled under construction mode on your site, so I could not see the actual site.

If you want to add search functionality into your sidebar, head over to Appearance -> Widgets area and then you can drop search widget into your sidebar area.

Then it will appear on your sidebar as follows.

If you’re still having issues, please provide us with your WordPress login credentials in a secure note to check your issue further.

Thanks!
