 * Hi, this refers to the upper search bar you see on this site. The one that sits
   below it is the default search.
 * My issue is that I am working with a web accessibility company on this site.
   
   They are basically telling me where I am lacking 🙂
 * The site search has come up. I have been asked to alter the aria-label attached
   to it. From Search input to Sitewide Search. I’m not sure where this even comes
   from. Do you know of a way I can change the label through the plug in itslef
   ?
 * <input aria-label=”Search input” type=”search” class=”orig” name=”phrase” placeholder
   =”Sitewide Search” value=”” autocomplete=”off”>
 * Any help would be really appreciated.
 * Thanks Amy

 * Hi,
 * The label on this element is statically printed to indicate the search input.
   I’m afraid changing that is only possible via editing the core plugin files.
 * You can find that input on line 37 in file: `wp-content/plugins/ajax-search-lite/
   includes/views/asl.shortcode.probox.php`
 * Althogh you may have to do that after every update, because the change might 
   revert. We will add a hook for the shortcode output in a future release, that
   may help with a permanent solution.
 * Best,
    Ernest M.
