Reply To: Search bar breaking site when inserted in modal window

[Ernest MarcinkoKeymaster]

Hi!

Thank you for the details, they helped me a lot!

I have found the problem. The quotes in the shortcode were invalid characters, probably generated when it was copy/pasted. I’ve corrected the code, plus I added a style for the old search to be hidden 🙂

I’ve also noticed that the search checkboxes were not working, because of a 3rd party theme script called jQuery uniform. It basically wraps up every checkbox and radio button on the page within a container for better styling – touching the search layout as well irresponsibly, causing it to malfunction and not to display them.

I had to make the following corrections in the wp-content\themes\motors\assets\js\app.js file on line 236, changed from:

$(":checkbox,:radio").uniform({});

to:

$(":checkbox,:radio").each(function(){
  var parent = $(this).parent();
  var i = 0;
  while ( !parent.hasClass('wpdreams_asp_sc') ) {
    i++;
    if ( i > 10 ) {
      $(this).uniform({});
      break;
    }  
    parent = parent.parent();
  }
});

This change of course is not permanent, once the theme is updated it will disappear. I will try to come up with a better workaround for the upcoming release. I assume other theme developers are using this script as well for some reason, so I better look into it.

Best,
Ernest Marcinko
