Hi Jordan,

Here is the code snippet to do that:

function wp_change_search_url_request( $request ) {
    if ( isset( $_GET['q'] ) ) {
        $request['s'] = $_GET['q'];
    }
    return $request;
}
function wp_change_search_url() {
    if ( is_search() && ! empty( $_GET['s'] ) ) {
        wp_redirect( home_url( "?q=" ) . urlencode( get_query_var( 's' ) ) );
        exit();
    }
}
add_filter( 'request', 'wp_change_search_url_request' );
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'wp_change_search_url' );

I've googled if there is something that is natively supported by WordPress but there were no other ways to do this.

Happy to hear that

Your question was a customization question and support doesn't offer customization services as we wrote on our support homepage and on this area but I tried to help you this time.

Have a great week!

P.S: If you enjoy our theme, you can head over to your Downloads tab and give it 5 stars. We will love you forever.

Dear Jordan,

Thank you for your rating, we appreciate it so much.

Regarding your other issue, may I login to your site and test the issue? For this I will need your credentials of WordPress.

To include your credentials click Insert Credentials button in editor toolbar. (See how)

Also let me know how can I reproduce the issue of white screen.

Hi Jordan,

I saw the whitescreen and wanted to install latest update of WPBakery but I had no such access, however can you please download latest version of WPBakery here:

Then install it and it should solve this issue.

Hi Jordan,

Here is the CSS to increase testimonial picture size to 120px (or whatever size you prefer, +20px for margin):

.page-container .wpb_content_element.lab_wpb_testimonials .testimonials-inner .testimonial-entry .testimonial-thumbnail {
    width: 140px; /* 120px image size + 20px margin from content */
}

As for responsive issues, I've checked the page and the content (text) is shown properly here:

Hi Jordan,

Happy to hear that

Will mark this ticket as solved from here.
