A floating (sticky) search bar appears on interior pages such as guidebooks, contact, or team pages.
Why this happens. The page still uses the older HomeRunner Explorer shortcode in search-bar-only mode, for example [homerunner-explorer hide_filters_btn=1 primary_filter_fields="where, date, guests, additional-filters" map=0 grid=0]. That legacy shortcode renders the modern search bar with sticky (floating) behavior enabled by default.
How to fix it. Replace each such shortcode with the modern equivalent and set sticky to off: [homerunner_searchbar_pro mode="hero" instance_id="hero" submit_url="/properties/" sticky="0"]. Adjust submit_url to match your site’s property-listing page.
Only swap shortcodes that have map=0 grid=0 with primary_filter_fields. Shortcodes that include tag=, ctid=, amenity=, or bedrooms_eq= are property listings. Leave those as they are.
