I am having problems getting rid of the small search bar in my custom pages.
I have created a custom MasterPage, and in that I have removed the search bar code. I then created a page layout, previewing it, to confirm there is no small search bar, just the large search added as part of the page layout.
However, when creating a page from the layout, I end up with the small search appearing. This despite being completely removed from my MasterPage and PageLayout code.
What is causing the search box to appear on my live page?
From the Custom PageLayout:
<mso:HtmlDesignFromMaster msdt:dt="string">http://PathRedacted/masterpage/kb.html, PathRedacted/masterpage/kb.html</mso:HtmlDesignFromMaster>
The file referenced here is my custom MasterPage. The system is using the correct files.
Here is an additional screenshot showing the F12 of the page, vs the MasterPage:
