Search Field Fixes in Elementor for Wordpress.com - Magnifying glass clears content, does not submit

In Elementor’s Search widget, there are actually three icon areas: --Input Icon --Clear --Submit Button In this case, the magnifying glass was accidentally assigned to Clear, which sits on the right side of the input and looked just like a submit icon. Fix: 1) Set the magnifying glass icon under the Input Icon 2) Set Clear to None (or use an X icon if you specifically want a clear function) 3) Allow the search to submit by pressing Enter 4) Only use the Submit Button option if you want a true button on the right side of the bar This video is for a WordPress web designer or developer using the Elementor builder; it is also useful for a business owner or manager looking to update their business website.
