Search Input appears two times about site-search-360-react HOT 3 CLOSED

To me this looks like an integration issue rather than an issue with the component.

You're not using the search inputs rendered by this plugin, is that correct?

The issue seems to be the following:

1. the search inputs don't get recreated on navigation
2. the SiteSearch360 component gets recreated after you navigate to another page --> the componentDidMount hook is called and it rebinds all event listeners on the inputs
3. nevertheless, the events have already been bound, so duplicate events get created on the search inputs which results in this behavior

So, the solution should be either making sure the SiteSearch360 component only mounts when the search inputs are recreated (probably integrating our component directly in the header), or integrating the search script manually.

Thanks for your quick response.

Correct.

If someone cares. The search component was part of both. The top-line (large screens) and the hamburger menu (small screens). Depending on screen size, CSS hided the one or the other. Removing the search component from hamburger menu resolved the issue.

Bonus question: is it possible to pace the search component two times on one page? We plan a new header navigation, still using two search components and CSS/media queries to show/hide the components accordingly.

Yes, that should be possible, we're using the vue app in our control panel multiple times on a page (with different configurations), and the vue app is basically the same as the react app.

So, as long as you make sure the events aren't bound multiple times, everything should work as expected.
