Search disable

[Krzysztof Rawski]

Is it possible to disable search function for non-logged in users? Guest should not be able to browse content of a platform that he has no access to.

I have already found the solution.

I’ve put this into css

#titlebar-search {
display: none;
}

.logged-in #titlebar-search {
display: block;
float: right;
}

But I have noticed that on hompage slider (while changing slide) closes the search input area. It is most annoying. Can anything be done with this issue?

Hi @bcim
You can remove following function

<div id="header-search" class="search-form">
                        <?php
                        echo get_search_form();
                        ?>
                        </div><!--.search-form-->

with

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && buddyboss_is_bp_active() ) : ?>
                        <div id="header-search" class="search-form">
                        <?php
                        echo get_search_form();
                        ?>
                        </div><!--.search-form-->
<?php endif; ?>

inside the header.php line 64
please copy header.php inside the child theme first and edit inside the child theme

My mistake. I thought that Social Learner is a Child theme for Boss but it seems to be a little different (SL header.php is different that Boss header.php). I use SL so please update your reply. Will this fix the bug od closing search input area by slider on homepage?

For social learner, you have to replace

 <!-- search form -->
<!--                        <div id="header-search" class="search-form">-->
                        <div id="titlebar-search">
                        <?php
                        get_template_part( 'searchform', 'header' ); 
                        ?>
                        <a href="#" id="search-open" class="header-button" title="<?php _e( 'Search', 'social-learner' ); ?>"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></a>
                        </div><!--.search-form-->

with

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() && buddyboss_is_bp_active() ) : ?>
 <!-- search form -->
<!--                        <div id="header-search" class="search-form">-->
                        <div id="titlebar-search">
                        <?php
                        get_template_part( 'searchform', 'header' ); 
                        ?>
                        <a href="#" id="search-open" class="header-button" title="<?php _e( 'Search', 'social-learner' ); ?>"><i class="fa fa-search"></i></a>
                        </div><!--.search-form-->
<?php endif; ?>

I works exact the same as my display: none solution though it is more Pro, but it does not solve the problem with slider bug.
