    Hi everyone I just recently switched to the genesis framework a little while ago and I'm suddenly getting a couple of soft 404 errors on webmaster tools.

    I think they are all coming from the search box on the 404 page since that's the only box I have found a search box on my site, they all have the term {search_term} as the search query. and the page gives me a "Sorry, no content matched your criteria." result.

    What would I need to do remove the search box from the 404 page? Do you think that would solve this issue?

    I would love some advise on how to solve this issue.

    This is what I see on the webmaster tool

    Soft 404
    Url: mypage.com/search/%7Bsearch_term%7D/

    Linked from
    mypage/search/{search_term}/
    mypage.com/?s=%7Bsearch_term%7D

    Thank you,

    Brooke
