Is there a way to keep the EasySocial Search facility but turn off Advanced Search feature?
Hi there,

Is there a way to keep the EasySocial Search facility but turn off Advanced Search feature?

Currently, there are no setting to disabled advance search on backend. But, maybe you can try to replace attached file on each path below respectively.
.../components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/search/default/default.php
.../components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/search/mini/default.php

Note:
Attached file name is changed to mini_default.php to differentiate each file because both file is same name. Make sure you rename it to default.php first then replace them at respective path.

Please give it a try and see how it goes.

Hi Abdul,

Thank you for your help with this. Unfortunately, that does not seem to help or maybe I have described it incorrectly. I take Advanced Search to be the little cog appended to the end of the Search box.

Hi there,

Sorry for confusion above. I though you meant "Advance Search" link after you search.
Can you try to replace attached file at this path .../components/com_easysocial/themes/wireframe/toolbar/search.php and see how it goes.

That worked great, is there the possibility to lose the cog from the EasySoicial Search Module as well (I have this on my homepage)?

Thanks.

Hi there,

You can replace attached file on the path below
.../modules/mod_easysocial_search/tmpl/default.php

Please give it a try and see how it goes

Thanks Abdul,

That does indeed get rid of the cog, but it also reduces the width of the search box and this in-turn reduces the width of the dropdown results so you can't see the results properly.

Still didn't work but I added the following to my custom.css file and this does the job...


#es .o-form-control {
width: 250px !important;
}
