I'd quite like to create a single search box, as the default vB searches are not terribly user friendly.
If you have a look at my site's front page HERE (http://www.bowlandcentral.com/forum), you'll see I've put two search boxes up...one for blogs and one for forums...in the top right corner.
However, even this method is still a bit clunkier than I would like. I would ideally like to have a single search box that then has a tick box/radio button/dropdown for forums or blogs, and then sends the search parameters to the relevant file...search.php or blog_search.php.
Kind anyone point me in the right direction for how to do this? I can probably write it myself if I know the direction I should be heading.
(PS not currently sure what I'd do with the threads/posts radio button at this stage.)
