Did the search function get removed?

Did the Search function get removed from the site? I got on today to search for some mods but there is no longer a search option.
-
Yes, was removed on the forums, but it is vailable in the mods section. You no longer see it there? Try another browser.
-
It's def not on the mod section using google as that's my main browser. I did try it on Microsoft edge and it's there on that but I hate edge browser. Why would it be removed on googles browser?
-
@truffleshuffle should work with Chrome, I use FF, but the site has glitches.
-
@JohnFromGWN Its probably a glitch and will go back to normal. who knows lol
-
@truffleshuffle I use Edge and works fine for me. Before I used to use Chrome and the search function was there too. Also (kinda off-topic but still) Edge is Chromium based (like Chrome) so I don't really understand why do you hate one and not the other
-
@truffleshuffle How small is your browser window? If your window is around 1200 to 1290 pixels wide, you won't see the search button. Anything higher or lower than that and the webpage will update and you will be able to see the button. You could also zoom out the page to see the button.
-
@Jitnaught @administrators BTW, it would be great to make the search button responsive, i.e. make it visible on small screens.
Also, I don't understand why the search button was removed on forums. It would be really helpful to have the ability to find the old posts.

@JohnFromGWN thanks, bro!

While this site has its share of glitches including the lack of search on the forums, and having to login more than once to reply (at times) or log in as someone else, websites are hopefully responsive in design and at least this one does resize properly.
I only use FF because Google and chrome based browsers are nothing but spyware. So I can confirm, at least on my own desktop PC that both FF and Edge can be resized well under 1200 pixel width and still maintain integrity. Search icon displays in both.
FF on the left of desktop. Edge on the right.
However, as @Jitnaught wrote, Edge is glitchy and the icon will disappear as you decrease it and then reappear - I'll trust the measurement is in the ballpark of 1200

@AlexSam The button is responsive, they just need to fix it for the 1200 to 1290 range. Otherwise the button is in the correct spot as far as I can tell. Nothing to do with browser you're using either, I tried in Firefox and Chromium with the same result.
You could also fix this yourself by using an extension such as Stylus to modify the CSS of the site.

@Jitnaught I didn't know about Stylus, thanks!
