Categories, custom categories (Series, channel, playlist) show image in search

Categories, custom categories

In search results, the categories not showing any image in results only the name and link. I have tried plugins such as: Categories Images, Category Featured Images – Extended. How to get image show for category?

“It very much depends on how the images are stored. WooCommerce category images are supported, but for others specific custom code has to be constructed, depending on how the images are stored – sice there is no built in solution in WordPress that I could implement to the plugin.

I suggest opening a support ticket, and I will take a look directly. Thanks!”

Hi,

I see you use the Categories Images plugin. For that to work, a small custom snippet is needed to be placed into the functions.php file in your active theme directory:
1. Make sure you have a back-up of everything
2. Place the following code to the functions.php file in your acrive theme directory (copy from line 3 only!):

3. Save the file, and you are done.

After this, category images should start showing up. If you need help with the implementation, feel free to leave FTP details and I will do it for you.

Image shows working now, thanks.

What about make search bar expandable when click on it.
Ex. default is 300px, but when I click on it is expand for 80% or 100% of page width?

Hi,

Try out the compact search box options, it may help achieving something similar: https://wpdreams.gitbooks.io/ajax-search-pro-documentation/content/layout_settings/compat_search_box_layout.html

I just remembered, someone already had a similar request, that may interest you.

This is a solution, where the search width changes when the input is focused to 800px (or max screen width), and changes back when the focus is lost:

It’s probably caclulated based on the user login position and the form left position (?):

Perfect, thank you for quick respond and a solution 🙂

Sure

One more think, If i change or modify Theme
– overall box layout
– input field layout

The preview works well but the default theme is showing on the front-end of the page (modification are not showing). Clean cache doesn’t help, change browser as well
I tried setup new theme and paste but the expandable option not working and I cant even write down and text

Works now I had to change in widget
Badge Background Color: #FFFFFF
choose background color for the Badge: #000000

I have made a tiny change on the back-end, for faster CSS loading, and better cache prevention: http://i.imgur.com/gnXVgVy.png
This should make sure that the changes are visible, if you clear the cache and reload the page with CTRL + SHIFT + R
