Disable Search

By Scott Reilly

Description

This plugin prevents WordPress from allowing and handling any search requests from the front-end of the site. Specifically, this plugin prevents the search form from appearing if the theme uses the standard get_search_form() function to display the search form.

It also prevents the search form from appearing if the theme uses a searchform.php template. The plugin disables the search widget by removing it from the list of available widgets and deactivating any search widgets currently in use in any sidebars.

Additionally, it disables the search block by removing it from the list of available blocks and deactivating any search blocks currently in use. The plugin ensures that any direct or manual search requests will return a 404 File Not Found response.

The plugin only affects search on the front-end of the site and does not disable searching in the admin section.
