Approach 1 - A simple way to do this would be to detect a scroll & add and remove a class that contains display: none;
You can have an event listener -
window.addEventListener('scroll', function() {
if( window.scrollY !== 0) {
document.getElementById('searchBar').classList.add('scrolled');
} else {
document.getElementById('searchBar').classList.remove('scrolled');
}
});
With the CSS -
.noScroll
{
background: yellow;
position:fixed;
height: 50px; /*Whatever you want*/
width: 100%; /*Whatever you want*/
top:0;
left:0;
display:none;
}
/*Use this class when you want your content to be shown after some scroll*/
.scrolled
{
display: block !important;
}
.parent {
/* something to ensure that the parent container is scrollable */
height: 200vh;
}
And the html would be -
<div class="parent">
<div class ='noScroll' id='searchBar'>Content you want to show on scroll</div>
</div>

Approach 2 -
Another simple approach would be
<script>
let prevScrollpos = window.pageYOffset;
window.onscroll = function() {
let currentScrollPos = window.pageYOffset;
if (prevScrollpos > currentScrollPos) {
document.getElementById('searchBar').style.top = '-50px';
} else {
document.getElementById('searchBar').style.top = '0';
}
prevScrollpos = currentScrollPos;
}
</script>
with the html -
<div class="parent">
<div id ='searchBar'>Content you want to show on scroll</div>
</div>
and css
#searchBar {
background: yellow;
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
height: 50px;
width: 100%;
display: block;
transition: top 0.3s;
}
.parent {
height: 200vh;
}

Answer 2

From the same example, the idea is only to show/hide once user scroll the page using inline css display property, you can do the same or at least provide a code sample so we can help you!

HTML
<div class="search-bar">
<div class="sticky-search">
Sticky Search: <input type="text" value="search" />
</div>
</div>
CSS
.sticky-search {
display:none;
position:fixed;
top:0px;
left:0px;
right:0px;
background:blue;
padding:10px;
}
JS
var searchHeight = $(".search-bar").outerHeight();
var offset = $(".search-bar").offset().top;
var totalHeight = searchHeight + offset;
console.log(totalHeight);
$(window).scroll(function(){
if($(document).scrollTop() >= totalHeight) {
$('.sticky-search').show();
} else {
$('.sticky-search').hide();
}
});
