Who doesn’t like buttons? To add a submit button to your search input, you can wrap the input code in a form container element and add a button element. All styling of the submit button is up to you! You can find an example below.

<form>
  <input type="text" class="st-default-search-input">
  <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>
