<input type="hidden" name="max-results" value="8"/>
<input type="submit" value="Search" />
</form>Note: The above code may vary.
Step 2. Find the code </form> and paste the following code just above it.
<input name="by-date" type="hidden" value="true"/>For Example:
<form action="/search" method="get">
<input type="text" name="q" placeholder="Type Here..."/>
