1.0.1 coming :D

[Mephisteus]

Fixed, turns out you need to enable the "vBulletin Default (Will be replaced by upgrade scripts)" option. Who thought of that!

[CarterMarkham]

Thank you for making this!

[Marco van Herwaarden]

I hope you do realize that permissions are not considered. This means that if an admin makes a search, this can also be seen by any member.

[Mephisteus]

I'm pretty aware of that, cause, ya know, I wrote it.

If that's a problem, don't use it. If you want to make it so that it doesn't and release that, go right ahead. I tagged the whole "Re-usable Code" thing for a reason :p

[CarterMarkham]

So this is a "rolling" display? Is there a way to make it like the one for 3.5? Where it just shows the last 15 searches no matter what time. I have a small board and people dont search every 15 minutes.

[Mephisteus]

Err, it still shows the latest searches on my test board. The ones I made last night well over 12 hours ago.

[edit]
And *now* they're gone. I'll look into it.

[edit 2]
Found what it is, working on a fix.

[edit 3]
Fixed

[CarterMarkham]

This is working great, but is there a way to get rid of the double search thing?
