How To Have A Search Bar Instead Of Search Icon In Shopify

[@astrowave5702]

You can also paste the code into a new snippet and call it "full-search-bar" and use the render tag to display it in the header. Its easy and more organized. Very helpful video

[@lownermusic]

what is that render tag?

[@ShopRetroGrade]

thank you so much

[@astrowave5702]

@@lownermusic its {% render 'full-search-bar' %}

[@Jawad.Rizvi1985]

@OnHOWGuy yes absolutely right... based on the location....! French people can access their own language, Dutch can their own , Spanish can be like wise..... I know there is an app translation by Shopify, but that app does translations limited, not the complete page.

[@OnHOWGuy]

I see, I will research more about this as its not static edit or something because it will require using a third party API and never did that before on Shopify. I noted it and i'll see what i can do. Cheers

[@felipegacitua4451]

Thank you for the code! it works great. Do you know how to remove the old search Icon? Your one is on the right and looks great. But the old one is still on the left side. Thanks again

[@OnHOWGuy]

You're very welcome and glad i could help. My code removes the old icon and displays the search bar instead so not sure where you saw the old icon on the left in my store. Please let me know in new comment as its difficult or me to see replies now. Cheers

[@user-ec5di9ss3k]

hey buddy Thanks! really helpful video. Just an addon - how do I make the search bar smaller or larger in appearance based on aesthetics?

[@jackdilger7540]

Hi, thank you for the vid. This worked but I need to change the search bar colour. Do you know how?

Anas, god bless you for sharing your knowledge. You are truly a gift and blessing to many of us. :)

Thank you and god bless you too, Im really happy to see comments like yours and no worries a lot of videos on the way. Cheers

[@gnazario3]

Hey thank you so much for the code. Question, How do I change the color of the border? I want it to be a certain color when not clicked and to remain the same when in focus.

[@Melvin-s8n]

Perfekt video just what needed help with, now how to I customize with css 😅

[@KeijiGer]

Great Work thank you! Is there a possibility to hide the "old" search Icon - but only for desktop not mobile?

[@OnHOWGuy]

You're welcome, Not sure if understand the question correctly but what you saying is exactly what the code does in this video. It shows a search bar on desktop but on mobile it shows the old search icon because on mobile the search is taking too much space. Let me know if got this wrong, also please let me know in a comment as its difficult for me now to see replies. Cheers

[@hzq16]

He means that the old search Icon still shows after adding the search bar Pls let us know how to fix it

Hello, how can we make the box wider and place it in the center of the header?

[@DonSeo-l2y]

is there a way to change the transparency of the search bar?

[@beham1016]

Hi there Anas, as always you are the best! Can you please show us how to make the product image on the product page full width on the mobile version and maybe make the thumbnail carousels for the product pictures smaller? this can be a great video NGL!

[@OnHOWGuy]

Hey, Thank you, i appreciate that. Absolutely, i noted your request and i will work on it but keep in mind that images on mobile is full width on most themes so which theme are you using ? Please let me know in new comment as its difficult or me to see replies now. Cheers

[@beham1016]

@@OnHOWGuy hey there thanks Anas for everything! I use dawn theme . I wanted it to be like the product page of the store acemend, one thing that they do best is that they also have narrowed carrousel thumbnails.

Hi bro, I did change my search logo to visible bar, but it only worked when i open it in my pc so mean to say it does not work when i open it as moble view. Please let me know.

[@RoshSalaver]

Hey there! your code works but i still have the search icon. Im using the Sense Theme

[@vedvaze6782]

thank you so much for this code i just had one doubt as my code has transparent header the search bar is not transparent could you please make a video on how to make that transparent as well

[@OnHOWGuy]

You're very welcome, Well i actually did that on purpose because if it was transparent as well the search bar will not be visible properly, it will show just a thin black line as the search bar and visitors might not even notice it specially if you have a light color background but again the choice is yours and if you are interested let me know and i'll work on it. Please let me know in new comment as its difficult or me to see replies now. Cheers

[@Mr.Mwamoto]

Nice video, are you able to help me do the same on the impulse 5 theme, I cant t´find the render 'header-search'

[@Mr.Mwamoto]

I have found out that I have the Shopify Search & Discovery app, do I have to uninstall that?

[@Mr.Mwamoto]

I have some think that it calls, search-bar.liquid, can it be that area I have to wokr with? code is: {%- unless search_btn_style -%} {%- assign search_btn_style = 'btn' -%} {%- endunless -%} {{ 'general.search.submit' | t }} icon-search {{ 'general.search.submit' | t }}

[@OnHOWGuy]

Thanks, i apologise at first as im unable to help you with that because i dont have access to paid theme's code so i dont how the structure works over there. Let me know if i can help you with anything else. Cheers

Hi Anas, can you please make a video about the translation of any language of the complete page. By default, it is in English, but if the customer wants to translate in his own language, the complete with text, descriptions, everything should be translate. I have already requested you before in your last video. Your sincere student.❤

[@OnHOWGuy]

Hey, You mean translating the content based on the visitor's location ? please confirm because i could understand your request correctly. Also please let me know in a new comment as its difficult for me to see replies now. Cheers

Are you sure this still the case ? because if you cannot find that it means the theme you using doesn't have a search function and i dont know any theme that doesn't have that.

Hey, on the code editor below the file name you'll see "Recent changes" and below it "current" with a down arrow, just click on it and you'll see the history for previous versions of the file for all the changes. If somehow that didn't work you can add another theme (same one) to your library below your main theme and access the code editor for it and then simply copy the code from that file (same file name) and paste it on your main theme file (same file name). Cheers

the old one is still there. its not going😭

[@Chicken_here_Gen_Z]

Actually if you doing this in your main store, first create a duplicate guys

Undoing the steps is easy for this video incase you dont want it anymore, And if it did break something for you it would be beneficial sharing the data as that can help me updating/fixing the code. Cheers
