Forum:Editing the wiki search bar

I've seen on other wikis that their search bar's appearance is altered. How do you do this? Please help.

 * refers to the whole search function. The button I'm not sure (possibly ). The part which you type in I think is

 * I corrected the spelling for the reference to the whole search function, but yes, those are the correct elements for the search function.


 * What exactly were you wanting to do to it? Since Wikia changed the way the search works, numerous wiki's have done their own local fixes to try and circumvent what is widely seen as an inferior search method, despite its violation of Terms of Use. Changing the colour is pretty much all you can do on a wiki-wide level. Altering the way it works for all users violates ToU. 15:00, May 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * If you're asking how to change the color and shape of the search bar, yes it can be done. It can be done through CSS. Like what Sam and Cam said.
