    I am currently having difficulties trying to insert a search form into the right side of the menu bar in the Atmosphere child theme.

    I followed the instructions in the “Add Nav Extras” page: http://my.studiopress.com/snippets/nav-extras/, but it placed the search bar underneath the menu.

    I would like it to be an icon on the right side of the menu, which, when clicked on, would expand into the search bar seen here: http://codepen.io/JFarrow/pen/lqroH. I used the CSS used in this snippet, and got it somewhat closer to the end result, but it keeps breaking. That’s where I get stuck. I think it has to do with the search snippet in the functions.php conflicting with something else in the menu, but I may be wrong.

    Please help me out with this 🙂

    Which one did you comment out? Try the other one as there's 2 methods in the 1 snippet. Otherwise, you'll need CSS to fix it.

    Jim: Still no luck. If you look at my link I provided above, you can see how far I was able to get. I was able to get a small search box in the menu, but it still doesn't work correctly.

    Brad: Thanks for sharing that link to the tutorials. The tutorial that shows the closest result I am trying to get is: http://wpsites.net/wordpress-tips/expanding-search-in-nav-menu/. The only thing is that I can't find the snippets in the Genesis Sample theme that the tutorial was talking about. Maybe in the most recent update from Studiopress, the snippets were removed from that theme?

    Steffen: The code for the expanding search form is custom code i spent several hours modifying to get it working in Genesis.

    It's not included in any theme and is only available to members of wpsites.net. Installation support is included for members.
