   Hi hicct,

   While I don't know of anyway to disable the search function of wordpress, you can remove the search form with a bit of css. Try adding the following CSS to your Quick CSS (located under the Styling Tab in the theme options) or the custom.css file in the css folder of your theme files:
   

   #searchform {
   display: none;
   }

   Regards,

   Great, thanks!

   Is there no option to use a Child Theme for all the custom changes to the theme?

   Hi!

   Yes, you can also add the code to the child theme style.css file. Maybe you need to use !important though.
