Description
Having received feedback from customers, there is a want for the search bar to be accessible through all points of a "hunt".
## Current Behavior
Search bar "disappears" as you scroll down the page of search results.
## Possible Solution
This could include the ability to jump back up to the top of the Search page
- Could potentially cause issues as well since the user will lose context of where they are at on the page within the search results
We could have the Search bar be sticky at the top during a scroll and float with the Navigation bar
- This would cause less screen real estate to be available for search results as there will always be a section covered by the sticky search bar
Another option would be for the Search link in Navigation to just toggle the search bar to be open, so that Searching is available at any point in the app
- This would help make search accessible at any point, but then we're stuck with the same two issues as above while the user is actually searching
Open to additional ideas.
One being that we could offer all/some of these options.
The user would be able to click "Pin" icon that would lock the search bar to the Nav bar and float.
If the user does not have the bar pinned, then a button would appear when the query is changed from a user action to allow the user to scroll back up to the top so they can see the updated query and run it.
