Adding search field for searching? Can't Post

I want to allow my users to search Article Manager. Is there a tutorial on adding Search support to my site?

Hi Mick,

You should already have a search function built-in to your installation - if you browse to the software's search.cgi file, you'll be able to access its search engine. If you go to your login page and change the URL from "admin.cgi" to "search.cgi", this page should come up.

Let us know if you have any other questions about this. Smile

What I want is a search field on each of the pages.
Is there some publishing rule or template that I need to have?

If so I might have removed the template and/or rules as we have made massive UI changes. But now we really want to have a search box on each generated page.

Hi Mick,

The default search engine is located at search.cgi, as Jake mentioned. You can add a search box to a template by using the following code:

<form action="/path/to/search.cgi" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="search"/>
Keyword: <input type="text" name="keyword" value="" size="25"/>
<input type="submit" value="Search" class="button"/>
</form>

For the search results, Article Manager will use the "searchResults.html" template in the /templates/searchEngine/ directory.

I hope this helps. :)
