    I am trying to insert an Advanced Woo Search search box into the header of my website.

    I am using header type 6 so have therefore copied the parent header-type-6.php file and made a child version.

    I have tried inserting the following code after line 28:

    <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[aws_search_form]’ ); ?>

    But the search form does not appear, what am i doing wrong?

    Regards,
    Ellis

    Hello,

    You can edit header structure in header-structure file (/wp-content/themes/woopress/headers).
    admin – file
    1 – 1
    2 – 1
    3 – 1
    4 – 1
    5 – 1
    6 – 2
    7 – 2
    8 – 3
    9 – 1
    10 – 4
    11 – 4
    12 – 4
    13 – 5
    14 – 5
    15 – 1
    16 – 1
    17 – 6
    18 – 2
    I would recommend you to do all changes in template files via child theme – https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
