I have this custom code to display a form on the stated pages:

// ==============================================================
//display bbPress search form above single topics and forums
function rk_bbp_search_form(){

if ( bbp_allow_search()) {
?>
<form role=”search” method=”get” id=”bbp-search-form” action=”https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/search/”&gt;
<div class=”trucklesoft-bbp-searchrow”>
<label class=”screen-reader-text hidden” for=”bbp_search”>Search for:</label>
<input type=”hidden” name=”action” value=”bbp-search-request”>
<input tabindex=”101″ type=”text” value=”” name=”bbp_search” id=”bbp_search”>
<input tabindex=”102″ class=”button” type=”submit” id=”bbp_search_submit” value=”Search”>
</div>

<div class=”gdpos-power-link”>
Advanced Search
</div>
</form> <?php
}
}

add_action( ‘bbp_template_before_single_forum’, ‘rk_bbp_search_form’ );
add_action( ‘bbp_template_before_single_topic’, ‘rk_bbp_search_form’ );
// ==============================================================

Can I also use this code to replace the form that is displayed at the top of the forums page too?

This is because I have introduced my own class which I now need also on the main forum page form:

https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/

General Information

You will see they look different.

Is there just another action I need to add here?

Thanks.

At the moment I added this additional styling:

#bbp-search-form > div { display: flex; }
#bbp-search-form > div input[type=text] { flex: 1; }

[@ajtruckle Participant 4 years, 5 months ago]

Please ignore.

I simply use:

/* Widen the search form */
#bbp-search-form > div:first-of-type { display: flex; }
#bbp-search-form #bbp_search { flex: 1; margin-right: 5px; }
#bbp-search-form #bbp_search_submit { margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; }

Actually, my original question still stands. I had modified this code to add a placeholder (for consistency)

// ============================================================== 
//display bbPress search form above single topics and forums
function rk_bbp_search_form(){
  
    if ( bbp_allow_search()) {
        ?>
<form role="search" method="get" id="bbp-search-form" action="https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/search/">
    <div class="trucklesoft-bbp-searchrow">
        <label class="screen-reader-text hidden" for="bbp_search">Search for:</label>
        <input type="hidden" name="action" value="bbp-search-request">
        <input tabindex="101" type="text" value="" name="bbp_search" id="bbp_search" placeholder="Type Search Term ...">
        <input tabindex="102" class="button" type="submit" id="bbp_search_submit" value="Search">
    </div>

    <div class="gdpos-power-link">
        <a href="https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/search/">Advanced Search</a>
    </div>
</form>        <?php
    }
}
  
add_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum', 'rk_bbp_search_form' );
add_action( 'bbp_template_before_single_topic', 'rk_bbp_search_form' );
// ==============================================================

Now I would also like to add this placeholder to the search form here:

https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/support-forums/

It shows OK everywhere else, example:
