Custom search forms

Hi there, I need a search page in Indonesian as well as English. My English search is just the usual setup and is working perfectly, but my Indonesian page is still showing the English form.

English search page: search.php
Indonesian search page: /bahasa/search.php
search-form-bahasa.html is in the perch/templates/search folder, and is a copy of search-form.html with the label and button values translated to Indonesian.
No shared or editable regions in either page.

English search.php has

<?php perch_search_form(); ?>

and Indonesian /bahasa/search.php has

<?php perch_search_form('search-form-bahasa.html'); ?>

Looking at https://docs.grabaperch.com/docs/search/page-functions/perch-search-form/ I thought I could just add the file name as an argument and it would find it in the search folder. But does it need a full file path? Or am I doing something wrong?

Have you tried to add the template as an option in an array. Something like this, for example,


<?php
   $opts = array(
       'template' => 'search-form-bahasa.html',
      );
    perch_search_form($opts);
?>

I'll give that a go, thanks Scott!
