I agree, wish he would share it with us.

Btw, am I the only one who noticed that the code is wrong ?

This :

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="client" value="pub-000000000" />

should actually be this:

Code:

<input type="hidden" name="client" value="partner-pub-000000000" />

other it would count as adsense content instead of adsense search.

So yeah Erwin rocks !

:banana:

I think I've added something similar to the search page on my forum see: http://forums.randi.org/search.php

Would that be of use to you?

Oops - forgot that wont be accessible for guests, it looks like the attached screenshot.

Long time since I added it - as far as I remember it's really just the code from Goggle that allows you to have your google search results shown with your forum's logo (I think that's called "Google Custom Search") added to vBulletin search page:

In the template "search_forums", find

$header
$navbar

and then add this underneath it

PHP Code:

You'll need to use your own url for where my forum's url is used.
