How can I show a UISearchBar in the NavigationBar?

I can\'t figure out how to do this.

Your help is very much appreciated.

Answer 1

As of iOS 7, the UISearchDisplayController supports this by default. Set the UISearchDisplayController's displaysSearchBarInNavigationBar = YES to get this working easily.

Per the documentation:

Starting in iOS 7.0, you can use a search display controller with a navigation bar (an instance of the UINavigationBar class) by configuring the search display controller’s displaysSearchBarInNavigationBar and navigationItem properties.
