I want to change search button to text search and account to text login

Topic summary

A user wants to replace icon-based navigation elements with text labels in their Shopify store header—specifically changing the search icon to “Search” text and the account icon to “Login” text.

Proposed Solutions:

  • Method 1 (EBOOST): Edit the theme code directly by navigating to Online Store → Themes → Edit Code, then modify sections/header.liquid. Locate <account-icon> and <details class="header__search"> tags and update them according to provided screenshots (screenshots referenced but not visible in text).

  • Method 2 (Dan-From-Ryviu): Add custom code to the theme.liquid file after the <head> tag, though the specific code snippet appears corrupted or improperly formatted in the conversation.

Status: The discussion remains open with no confirmation of which solution was implemented or whether the issue was resolved. Both solutions require direct theme file editing, which involves HTML/CSS modifications.
