Without search box plugin we can’t do it? if yes, Which search plugin need to install? what modification needs to be done in header.php ? thanks in advance 🙂

Hello, well, you need a search box to show a search box 🙂 I suggest ajax search lite, is very good one.
It should give you a php code after created your search box, go to ftp files, at main theme, copy the header.php and paste it at the child theme, then edit it and paste the php code “<?php…..” of the search bar, save and reload your site, you can move it until you find a good position 🙂

Hai laura.,

It is available Pro versions only. Is there any equally functional free versions available?

[KAStyles]

While you want the header… have you set up the Advanced search options for members? It works great. 🙂 You can add the search with shortcode to a widget.

[Laura]

That is a great idea @KAStyles !
Sorry @thamizharasu i do not know any free option
