    On my member page, there is a search button, but no place to click and type the search.

    Hey @ktrides2

    Try giving the theme author some details of the problem. Maybe they’ll be able to release a fix?

    @ktrides2 add this code to your child themes css

    form#search-members-form input {
    	display: inline-block !important;
    	position: relative !important;
    	top: 35px !important;
    }

    The 35px is a guess, so you may need to change this depending where it lands.

    Firefox > View > Page style > No style – does show the Search box and I could search.
    So it is a theme and css issue.
    Other search box appears fine on that page.
    Did you use mcpeanut’s code with success ?

    https://wordpress.org/support/topic/seach-box-for-members-does-not-appear-only-the-button?replies=3 – they have said its a BP thing. But they have not said why the BP thing is not being shown by their theme like other themes.

    Please post if you solved this. BTW what is the left side bar widget named “Activity” in your site? Its nice. Thanks.

    Thanks all! @MCPeanut your fix worked great Thank you. The top of the search box and button are cut off, but I can live with that. I will report this to the Theme Author.


    @rosyteddy
    – thanks for that check! The left side bar activity widget came with the theme, its called AlxTabs

    HEY @ktrides2 dont settle for the top of the search box being cut off…like i said it was a guess at 35px but by looking at your website now i see you could do with an extra 10px down so take the code i gave you earlier and change the 35px to 45px that will stop the top being cut off.

    Glad it worked for you 🙂
