Thank you for highlighting a valid issue. I can confirm that I am able to reproduce it.

[rejaulalomkhan]

We can solve the issue by adding the margin: 10px 0px; at the .wp-filter .search-form class.

Fixed the Add new theme search form alignment by adding the margin: 10px 0px; at the .wp-filter .search-form class.

Thanks For the PR @rejaulalomkhan. It's Looks Good For Me.

Marking this for 'commit' and removing 'needs-testing' as this already has a good number of testing reports.

This has not been tested on other screens that contain the filter search box.

[58146] purposely removed the 10px 0 margin from the search box. Adding it back would make too much space on the Media page (with items in list mode), and the Plugins search would have a bottom margin without any on the top.

If all of 40331.5.diff is good, it contains a margin for the theme installation page:

.theme-install-php .wp-filter .search-form {
        margin: 10px 0;
}

[sabernhardt]

adding margin for only the theme install screen

This has not been tested on other screens that contain the filter search box.

Yes, let's target only what we need to update. It seems that the regression is only affecting the Add Themes area. I checked the Media Library search and Plugins search and they're not impacted by this regression.

Also, it is worth noting that the Add Media area has a margin: 11px 0; (see: ​https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/blob/trunk/src/wp-includes/css/media-views.css#L1217).

While I think @sabernhardt patch is suitable we might want to consider:

.theme-install-php .wp-filter .search-form {
    margin-block: 11px;
}

The 11px matches the Media Library and the margin-block only targets the block's start and end margins while accounting for writing mode, directionality, and text orientation.
