   So, I've started playing with Thematic and was looking at some of the contributed child themes. In the Thematic Featured Site theme, a search form is added to the header. Great! However, when I went to modify the code that is supposedly modifying the search form, the code doesn't actually appear to be called. For example if I replace the input text with something else, I still just get the default text... Also, that <label> tag is never output (this is also true on the demo site for the theme.)

   I'm talking specifically about this:

   // Customize the search form
   function childtheme_search_form($form) {
       $form = '<form method="get" id="searchform" action="' . get_option('home') . '/" >
               <label class="hidden" for="s">' . __('Search:') . '</label>
               <div>';
       if (is_search()) {
           $form .='<input type="text" value="' . attribute_escape(apply_filters('the_search_query', get_search_query())) . '" name="s" id="s" />';
       } else {
           $form .='<input type="text" value="To search us, type and hit enter" name="s" id="s"  onfocus="if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.value=\'\';" onblur="if(this.value==\'\')this.value=this.defaultValue;"/>';
       }
       $form .= '<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="'.attribute_escape(__('Search')).'" />
               </div>
               </form>';
       return $form;
   }
   add_filter('get_search_form', 'childtheme_search_form');

   Am I missing something here or is this a bug of some sort? Running WP 3.0.1 w/ latest Thematic.

   TIA for any help.

   Oooh..bump. I have this same problem. It seems that 'get_search_form()' is being called, but the filter isn't working. Anyone?

   After replacing get_search_form with thematic_search_form this started working.

   //Add Search form to header
   function childtheme_searchform() {
       thematic_search_form();
   }
   add_action('thematic_header','childtheme_searchform',3);
   
   // Customize the search form
   function childtheme_search_form($form) {
       $form = '<form method="get" id="searchform" action="' . get_option('home') . '/" >
               <label class="hidden" for="s">' . __('Search:') . '</label>
               <div>';
       if (is_search()) {
           $form .='<input type="text" value="' . attribute_escape(apply_filters('the_search_query', get_search_query())) . '" name="s" id="s" />';
       } else {
           $form .='<input type="text" value="To search, type and hit enter" name="s" id="s"  onfocus="if(this.value==this.defaultValue)this.value=\'\';" onblur="if(this.value==\'\')this.value=this.defaultValue;"/>';
       }
       $form .= '<input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="'.attribute_escape(__('Search')).'" />
               </div>
               </form>';
       return $form;
   
   }
   add_filter('thematic_search_form', 'childtheme_search_form');
