# Customising the Search Bar
When activating the option to be able to search headings and pages on your Obsidian Publish page, you will get a search bar below the site name.
This search bar can be customised with following code, in case of my page I changed the background color, border radius, border thickness and color and the font size of the placeholder text.
```CSS
.search-view-outer {
padding-right: 50px !important;
}
.search-view-container input::placeholder {
font-size: 13px !important;
}
.search-view-container input {
font-size: 13px;
background-color: var(--bg2);
padding: 5px 10px;
border-radius: 4px;
border: 1px solid var(--border-custom) !important;
}
```
