I would like to see a plugin for vb 3.5.3 that can disable the search time for certain usergroups. For example if your time between searches is set to 30 in adminCP I would like this hack to allow certain usergroups to bypas the search time limit.

Another great feature would be to allow this hack to prioritize the server laod and only allow certain uergroups to search at all times but when server load is "Admin Set Feature" to give all other usergroups a mesaage something like this

Sorry. The search function has been temporarily disabled due to high server load. Please try your search again in a few minutes. Other site features will still be functional.

Check out our Premium Membership Program for higher priority access to the search engine as well as other nice features.

Tips & Trivia:
Banging on the search button rapidly only makes it less likely that you will get in. Please use common sense when accessing limited resources. Wait at least a few seconds before trying again - even better try again in a few minutes. Thanks!

Trying to live this thread up again. Cant believe no one has designed this hack... Would be cool to be able to limit the search feature to usergroups

I'm sure you could use conditionals for the search button in the navbar, and then rename search.php to something different so people do not guess the URL.

Then you risk the "new posts" button not working, which is a real let down for any usergroup.
