Adding the Search Button at Header

I am using the Beaver Themer add-on for header layout. Yet you have not Beaver themer add-on, still you can make the header with Beaver Builder plugin. Checkout this video which is made by our favourite community member David Waumsley.

Need some custom CSS for professional look. Open the style.css file of your child theme or you can add it other place.

All are done. Now refresh the site, click on the search button and see the effect.
