you can place a search box anywhere using html code or you can get; [url=http://forums.b2evolution.net/viewtopic.php?t=15593]Advanced Search by sam2kb [/url] as it has the ability to display 'only' the search box and nothing else, either way you will end up having a search box which you can place it anywhere in your page and modify via css

Thanks for the link, I've installed the Advanced Search plug in, but can't figure out how to display it out of a widget array. Can someone explain to me how to do this, or how to do a regular HTML search box?

Use this code somewhere in the skin:

 <form action="<?php $Blog->gen_blogurl() ?>" method="get" class="search">

Needs a submit button I presume.

I've got some more codesnippets if this one isn't enough. But gotta run now so please remind me if you're interested ;)

Good luck

try the html method.. just to mention you can add the advanced search widget into any of the containers then you can possibly place it where you like using css position:absolute-relative, or fake up a container for just that widget,good luck
