Hello. Thank you for a great plugin. I’m hoping to upgrade if it works well for me. I’ve found a bug. At least, it’s a bug on my site, greenwitch.ca. When I click the ‘X’ to close the search, it doesn’t work in the menu search form, although it does for sidebar and footer widgets search forms. I’m hoping you can help me with this. Thank you.

I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.
It seems your theme also styles it differently causing the issue.
You can make it work by adding the below CSS code in the Custom CSS option of Ivory Search plugin settings on the path Ivory Search -> Settings -> Settings
#masterhead .is-menu .search-close { right: 0; top: 7px; }Best regards,
Ivory Search SupportThank you so much for getting back to me so quickly. I really appreciate it and your solution is working! Two last questions:
1) Can I make the “x” smaller?
2) Is there a way for the Ivory Search “x” to overwrite my theme’s “x” so that they look the same whether in the search menu or in the sidebar or footer widget?I really do appreciate any help. 🙂
Hi again. I’ve had to disable Ivory Search. The “x” ended up superimposing on my theme’s “x” so I ended up with two “x” in the menu search although the sidebar and footer search wasn’t affected.
Also for some reason, some changes I’m making in settings are not sticking. For example, under password protected, I select “Search posts without passwords” and save but as soon as I have, it reverts back to “Search posts with or without passwords.” I’m going to have to find another way to add search to my menu. Thanks anyway. Have a lovely day.
Hi again 🙂 I updated and reactivated Ivory Search. I’m sorry but I’m still experiencing a couple of bugs:
1) If I add the code you provided above to Custom CSS to add the “x” to close the nav menu Ivory Search box, once I start typing in the search bar, it superimposes over my theme’s “x” instead of overwriting it, as seen in the attached screenshot.
2) If I don’t use the code, my theme’s “x” shows up but doesn’t work to close the search bar. However, it does work to close the search bar in my sidebar widget.
3) In Ivory Search Settings/ Menu Search, if I disable the Display search form close icon, it doesn’t save and always reverts back to that option being toggled, whether or not I have the custom CSS code you provided added.
4) With the sidebar widget, even if I remove the title “Ivory Search,” it still shows up.
I have a question: is there a way to give more weight to pages first and then posts in the search results? Is this a pro version setting or is it not available at all?
1) If I add the code you provided above to Custom CSS to add the “x” to close the nav menu Ivory Search box, once I start typing in the search bar, it superimposes over my theme’s “x” instead of overwriting it, as seen in the attached screenshot.
Then please try changing the above shared CSS code as following.
#masterhead .is-menu .search-close { right: 8px; top: 8px; }2) If I don’t use the code, my theme’s “x” shows up but doesn’t work to close the search bar. However, it does work to close the search bar in my sidebar widget.
I am not sure about the theme “x” so please contact the theme support to get more information about it.
3) In Ivory Search Settings/ Menu Search, if I disable the Display search form close icon, it doesn’t save and always reverts back to that option being toggled, whether or not I have the custom CSS code you provided added.
I have tested it on my test site and it’s working fine for me using the latest version of Ivory Search plugin.
Could you please try using a different browser?
4) With the sidebar widget, even if I remove the title “Ivory Search,” it still shows up.
I could confirm this issue which will be resolved in the next version of the plugin.
In the meantime, Do you want to hide the title on your site?
If yes then could you please share the page URL from your site where it is displaying so that I can help you to remove it?
I have a question: is there a way to give more weight to pages first and then posts in the search results? Is this a pro version setting or is it not available at all?
Yes, that option is available in the premium version of the plugin as shown in the attached screenshot.
Hi again! Thank you so much for the new CSS code. It worked perfectly. I really appreciate your help with this. And now that it is working, I don’t need to keep a search bar in my sidebar or footer. Also, I’m glad to hear that sorting results by type is an option with the pro version. It’s even more incentive to buy it. Have a lovely weekend!
You are most welcome, I’m glad I was able to help you with this matter. There is no obligation but by your kind words I wonder if I could trouble you to leave a review based on this experience here:

And if I can be of any further assistance please don’t hesitate to ask.
