Super Search questions

[mariosm]

Hi there.

i would like to ask if there is a way to customize the super search. Am i able to create custom search options on it? I am building a machinery website and it would be lovely if i could add search options like “country” “machinery type” “new or used”etc.

SUGGESTION: You have created a really cool way of searching a product. But its hidden. Is it possible to make it stay open?

Thank you

Marios

Hi, what do you mean by “it’s hidden”?

You can customize the fields of your super search in the theme options 🙂

I think she means that you need to click on the small link to display it. It is hidden on page load. How can you make it visible by default and close with the big cross?

@mario – if you are still looking for a way to show the search by default, you can simply do that via CSS (as the hide / show is done via css class in jquery).

In the styles.css in the root of the neighborhood theme folder, go to line 1336 (#super-search) and replace

display:none

with

display:visible

The search bar will now show by default and hide on close!

Ah I understand, thank you simon!

this custom css will make it visible at any time:

#super-search {
display: block!important;
}

Cheers!

Hi
Can you post up the URL to a page where this is happening so I can check it out directly?
Thanks!

Have you deactivated the super search in general? I don’t see it in general :/

Hi Melanie,
I don’t want to start a new topic, because several has been both created and closed. Despite that, I cannot find the right answer for me. Shortly: how can I change the Super Search background color from the color picker setting page? I really cannot understand it… since I tried all the possible color options. 🙁
Many thanks in advance for your support, kind regards.

Hi, you can use this custom css:

#super-search {
background: #252525;
border-bottom: 1px solid #333;
color: #fff;
}

and adapt it according to your liking!
