This shortcode adds a search form to search Knowledge base.

All parameters are optional:

title – heading above the widget
search_box_hint – hint visible in the box. If missing, the value will be ‘Search the documentation…’
search_button_name – name of the search button. If missing, the value will be ‘Search.’

You can choose from seven preset styles to change the look of the search widget in KB Configuration:
