Get search form WordPress, wordpress search form

Usage

Display search form using searchform.php Theme file.

 get_search_form(); 

Examples

If you don’t have searchform.php in your Theme, WordPress will render its built-in search form:

<form role="search" method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>">
    <div><label class="screen-reader-text" for="s">Search for:</label>
        <input type="text" value="" name="s" id="s" />
        <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search" />
    </div>
</form>

The above form is used on HTML4 websites. If your theme supports HTML5, which happens if it uses add_theme_support(‘html5’, array(‘search-form’)); it will output the following HTML form. This is the case since WordPress 3.6.

<form role="search" method="get" class="search-form" action="<?php echo home_url( '/' ); ?>">
	<label>
		<span class="screen-reader-text">Search for:</span>
		<input type="search" class="search-field" placeholder="Search …" value="" name="s" title="Search for:" />
	</label>
	<input type="submit" class="search-submit" value="Search" />
</form>

function my_search_form( $form ) {
    $form = '<form role="search" method="get" id="searchform" class="searchform" action="' . home_url( '/' ) . '" >
    <div>
    <input type="text" value="' . get_search_query() . '" name="s" onblur="if (this.value == '') {this.value = 'Search';}" onfocus="if (this.value == 'Search') {this.value = '';}" id="setop"/>
    <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="'. esc_attr__( 'Search' ) .'" />

Why use a Child Theme in WordPress ?

Child Theme in WordPress, Why use a Child Theme in WordPress

• If you modify an existing theme and it is updated, your changes will be lost. With a child theme, you can update the parent theme (which might be important for security or functionality) and still keep your changes.
• It can speed up development time.
• It’s a great way to get started if you are just learning WordPress theme development.

Create custom navigation menu in WordPress

Register Menus

Firstly, in your theme’s functions.php, you need to write a function to register the names of your menus. (This is how they will appear in the Appearance -> Menus admin screen.) As an example, this menu would appear in the “Theme Locations” box as “Header Menu”.

function register_my_menu() {
  register_nav_menu('header-menu',__( 'Header Menu' ));
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menu' );

And this would make two menu options appear, header menu and extra menu –

function register_my_menus() {
  register_nav_menus(
    array(
      'header-menu' => __( 'Header Menu' ),
      'extra-menu' => __( 'Extra Menu' )
    )
  );
}
add_action( 'init', 'register_my_menus' );

Display Menus on Theme

Once you’ve done that, your theme will be almost ready. The last preparation step is to tell the theme where you want the menus to show up. You do this in the relevant theme file. So, for example, we might want our header menu to be in header.php. So open up that file in the theme editor, and decide where you want to put your menu. The code to use here is wp_nav_menu which we will need once for each menu location. So, add this code –

<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'header-menu' ) ); ?>

All you need to ensure is that the theme_location points to the name you provided for your menu in the functions.php code above. (Note that it’s the header-menu being used here rather than Header Menu without a hyphen. header-menu is the name that the code understands, Header Menu is the human-readable version that you see in the admin page.)

To complete the code, you can put your extra menu someplace else. Maybe you want a menu on one of your pages, for example, and you might even want it to be jazzed up a little with a containing DIV of a certain class –

wp_nav_menu( array( 'theme_location' => 'extra-menu', 'container_class' => 'my_extra_menu_class' ) );

So you’d put the above into your Page template, and not only would the menu show up wherever you put it, it’d be styled as my_extra_menu_class so that you can work with that in CSS.

<?php

		$temp = $wp_query; $wp_query= null;
		$wp_query = new WP_Query(); $wp_query->query('showposts=5' . '&paged='.$paged);
		while ($wp_query->have_posts()) : $wp_query->the_post(); ?>

		<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="Read more"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
		<?php the_excerpt(); ?>

		<?php endwhile; ?>

		<?php if ($paged > 1) { ?>

		<nav id="nav-posts">
			<div class="prev"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Posts'); ?></div>
			<div class="next"><?php previous_posts_link('Newer Posts &raquo;'); ?></div>
		</nav>

		<?php } else { ?>

		<nav id="nav-posts">
			<div class="prev"><?php next_posts_link('&laquo; Previous Posts'); ?></div>
		</nav>

		<?php } ?>

		<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>

	</article>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Positive thinking people are HAPPIER

Be happy forever, Positive, Positive thinking

Pessimists are more inwardly focused and have more depression, anxiety and other mental health problems in general. Positive people have a greater capacity for love, joy and warmth that brings happiness into their lives, and also into the lives of their families and everyone else around them. This increased capacity for love means that they are loved more in return because they are more outwardly focused, kinder and more considerate to others.
