Search button/icon not submitting

    Hello,

    When I click the magnifying glass icon to the right of the search field, the page/post does not search or bring in search results, but only adds “#go” to the URL (example: http://www.thisismysite.com/testpost/#go) and the page/post remains the same.

    This happens to any Ivory Search on the site. (Here is an example of the ivory search not working –> http://josephsmithfoundation.org/ziontube) The Ivory Search is added into the page/post via shortcode.

    The search will work, though, if you press “Enter” on your keyboard.

    Do you know why this might be, or how I can fix the search?

    Thanks!

    I hope you are well today and thank you for your question.

    It seems this is happening because of how dt-the7 theme used on your shared site styles search form.

    You can resolve this by adding the below CSS code in the Custom CSS option of Ivory Search plugin settings on the path Ivory Search -> Settings -> Settings

    .searchform input.searchsubmit {
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    right: 0;
    width: 50px;
    z-index: 999999;
    clip: unset;
    font-size: 0 !important;
    background: transparent !important;
}

    Best regards,
