Style the Search Box Close Icon in Divi

Written by Dan Mossop

Styling the Search Box Close Icon with CSS

Here's an example of CSS code for applying different styles to the search box close icon. It sets the icon to a lighter grey, and turns it red on hover.

.et_close_search_field:after {
    color:#ccc;
}
.et_close_search_field:hover:after {
    color: red;
}
