    After some investigation I think it is necessary to modify the FullScreenSearchBlock.php file in the "dxpr_theme_helper" module.

    Hi dkatena,

    We're looking into this but it seems like the search_api module is a lot more complex and not straightforward to use together with our Full Screen Search plugin. For instance, because search_api supports cusom and multiple search forms, it would be difficult to theme those search forms to work in our full screen search design.

    Can you tell us more about why you want to use the search_api module together with the Full Screen Search plugin and what technical requirements you have for the implementation?

    Also, would an alternative solution for you be possible? For example, Drupal.org site search uses the core search module but it's extended with Facets API module to craete search filters:

    https://www.drupal.org/search/site/DXPR →

    https://www.drupal.org/project/facetapi →

    Sorry for the late reply and thank you for your kind response and the research done to evaluate the possibility!

    The main reason would be to be able to use partial word search, which I believe the core module doesn't do.

    Another reason was to use facet search and thanks for the link, I hadn't seen that.
