Hi everyone, I have added Search Box Sitelinks to my website. However, it has been about a month and google search results still do not show my site search box.
I have also checked my site through the Structured Data Testing Tool: and there is no error. Please tell me why this is not showing up, or is there a change in the google webmaster documentation that I need to update how to implement?

One thing to note is that adding the Sitelink code does NOT cause Google to instantly display your internal search box. Google has its own algorithm to determine if it thinks a search box will HELPFUL the user. All this code means is that if an internal search box is displayed, Google has to ‘power’ it (using your built-in search function) for a better user experience rather than using its own search index.
Likewise, if it turns out that your traffic volume is still not enough and your returning visitor volume is also not enough, then it is not surprising if Google does not display Sitelink (your Internal Search Box).
