discourse / discourse-search-banner

This is a component that puts a search bar along with optional headline and subhead text in a banner above the main topic list navigation of a Discourse community.

By default this banner appears on all top-level topic pages (latest/new/unread/top/categories... anything in the top menu site setting) but it can also be set to only display on a community's homepage.

❓ How do I install a theme component?

💖 This very heavily borrows from angus' header search component: https://meta.discourse.org/t/header-search-theme/67959

Available settings

• Set the headline and subhead text
• Show the banner on all top-level topic pages (default), or just the homepage
• Set a background image

Custom styling

The HTML element gets a class named .display-search-banner wherever this banner appears, and the banner itself is wrapped with the .custom-search-banner class, so with some CSS you should be able to customize the appearance of this banner however you see fit.

Future enhancements

• Add an option to enable the banner in specific categories
