OK this may be a really silly question, but my search buttons are wrapping oddly -

Why are they on top of each other? How can I get them to be on one line to take up less space? Is there a reason they're like this?

I assume a guest does not have search enabled?

Dear Ruben -

I've enabled search for guests now.

I suppose what would make more sense for me is that the search box be shorter so the "go" button doesn't wrap around. When the Go button wraps, it then creates a stack of buttons which takes up a lot of space. It also would make more sense to me for the advanced link to be a link, not a button, since it's taking you to another form and not taking direct action on the existing form.

I see it now.
edit the template island_search.tpl
remove the one br tag between the buttons.
you may want to add some white space between the buttons.

Also you will need to clear cache in the ubb cp to rebuild the island.

As far as a link you can edit the same tpl file it is just a form using a submit button

The template for the search island was updated several revisions ago (which in turn would be several years ago with how the development speed has been)
