1. Create a folder named searchwp-modal-form within your theme
2. Create a file within that folder named template.php (or any name ending in .php)
3. Copy the contents of the default template into that file
4. Customize the SearchWP Modal Form Name value in the header comment block
5. Make any other customizations you\’d like to the markup/style, paying attention to the documentation

There are (jQuery) events that fire when modals are opened and closed. jQuery is not a dependency, but if jQuery is loaded the events will fire.

// Add a callback when a modal is opened:
jQuery('body').on('searchwpModalOnShow', function(e) {
    // Focus an input in the template.
    e.el.find('input').focus();
});

// Add a callback when a modal is closed:
jQuery('body').on('searchwpModalOnClose', function(e) {
    alert('Modal closed!');
});
