  padding:0 0 10px 0;

Administrator

Insert the setup of Indexed Search (indexed_search) and then of Macina Searchbox (macina_searchbox) from “include static (from extensions)” and insert an Indexed Search plugin. The Indexed Search setup must be before Macina Searchbox. Do not use the plugin of macina_searchbox! This has been changed from the older versions and the outdated documentation!

By this method the setup will be available in your TypoScript. Then you can modify the setup to your own template files which you change to your needs.

Then in your template add this:

<f:cObject typoscriptObjectPath="lib.macina_searchbox" />

or alternatively:

page.10.marks.LEFT < lib.macina_searchbox
