No search button visible on mobile site #1271

Open ghost opened 8 years ago

The search button is inside the hamburger menu (top-right) on the mobile site. I think it should be visible on its own, given searching is probably the most common use of visiting osm.org.

Well it's very tricky on the mobile site because we can't show as much as normal as there isn't the screen real estate. Whether it's the "most common use" is very subjective as well - it's not something I normally use at all for example.

The mdn website uses a very small search field which expands onfocus. Perhaps this could be a solution here, too.

I think search should have at least the same visibility as say, sharing the map.

I'm willing to try to put HolgerJeromin's suggestion into the right-hand menu bar on mobile (I'll leave the desktop search bar alone). Would you be interested in this PR, @tomhughes?
