Change google search to plain input box to get rid of clunky branding. #278

Closed ArcEye closed 6 years ago

Add Forum search, by appending search string to preset search url and creating separate search box.

Spend hours buggering about trying to get them to line up properly!

Please do not merge immediately checks are done, I need to look at the preview on a mobile and a tablet to ensure it is usable.

The google search box does not work on preview, but I think that is because it's results are directed to the main site url.

Otherwise, the search was deliberately not added to mobile viewing, because Jekyll inserts the same code twice into the same page, which makes identifiers non-unique and the search does not work.

Really the website needs a fresh look and simpler formatting, but that is for another day (year)

OK to merge, then can check the end result conclusively
