While working on SharePoint 2013 and Office 365 sites, most of our clients request their homepage without having a search box option..

In those cases, you can avoid taking a lot of time in writing code to hide those files. Just follow the following steps.

  1. Edit the page on which you want to remove the Search Box.
  2. Add a Script Editor web part.
  3. Paste the following code.

    Code
    1. <style type="text/css">
    2. #DeltaPlaceHolderSearchArea {
    3. display: none;
    4. }
    5. </style>
  4. Your search box will be gone.

That's it.
