Ok dude;) But as demonstrated, it already works for me - These crazy guys with their wackey sites:p

Maybe you can find something new for another version? Like a "search.php" in admin, where you can search for specific stuff on vB.org / vB.com etc;)

Satan

Yeah, like searching for specific words on pages. :)

I found the fix! Play with it long enough and it usually works out. ;) The following code works for vb.org:

PHP Code:


		
			
<form action="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/search.php" method="post" name="vbform" target="_blank">

<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]">

<input type="hidden" name="forumchoice" value="-1">

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="simplesearch">

<input type="hidden" name="searchdate" value="-1">

<tr class="secondalt">

 <td><a href="http://www.vbulletin.org/" target="_blank">vBulletin.org Search</td>

 <td><input type="text" size="30" class="bginput" name="query" tabindex="1"> <span id="submitrow"><input type="submit" class="bginput" name="submit" value="vB.org" accesskey="s"></span></td>

</tr>

</form>

Here is a screenshot:)

Satan

Sweet! it looks good!

@Boofo - Um thats what I posted with a little bit less pre-defined data:

Code:

<form action="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/search.php" method="post" target="_blank">

<input type="hidden" name="s" value="" />

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="simplesearch" />

<input type="hidden" name="forumchoice" value="-1" />

<input type="hidden" name="titleonly" value="" />

<input type="hidden" name="showposts" value="" />

<input type="hidden" name="searchdate" value="-1" />

<input type="hidden" name="beforeafter" value="after" />

<input type="hidden" name="sortby" value="title" />

<input type="hidden" name="sortorder" value="descending" />

<tr class="secondalt">

        <td><a href="http://www.vbulletin.org/" target="_blank">vBulletin.org Search</a></td>

        <td><input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="30"> <span id="submitrow"><input type="submit" value="vB.org"></span></td>

</tr>

</form>

:)

@csidlernet - Thanks:)

Satan

And that's why it worked. For some reason, it doesn't need all the pre-definitions that you had there. They were interfering with it. Actually, I used the definitions filburt has in his forumhome quick search hack and that worked.

And you didn't have the $session[sessionhash] in yours.

Oh...

Because I don't use sessionhash;):p

Fair enough - I was just trying to make it more accurate;)

Satan

More accurate is great if it works. Thanks for trying though. It gave me a place to start.

Yeh....I think shovel is gonna do some kind of page where you can search more accurately, pretty much like the vB.org search page only on your site;)

Satan

W00t!

Boofo the code worked. I can now set my control panel as my home page ;)

Strange how you guys get blank pages. Just so hellsatan doesn't go crazy it also works for my admin panel. Great work, hellsatan. Makes searching a lot easier. Kudos.

@Boofo - It seriously does work:)

I updated my code to include a dropbox for vB.org forums:

Code:

Satan

Cheers WEForums;)

I was sure I am crazy, but I was sure that it worked nevertheless:D

Maybe it is because of certain hacks they have installed and we have not?:)

Satan

That's probably the case. That is the first edit in that part of the /admin/index.php file ever, so that could be it.

wow, this is an awesome hack...and easy to install for n00bs like me :)

LOL Chris, are you ready for this? Here is the exact code I am using now for this. Look familiar? And now it decides to work.

I'm telling you Bob you were definately staring at that screen for too long:p

So I did make viable code:D:p

Satan

Now I'm curious as to what changed on my end to make it work. It did not work before, all I got was a blank screen or the vb.org search page. And I haven't changed anything at all in the admin/index.php. :surprised:

Maybe your host did an upgrade of something and for some reason it worked:eek:

Satan

The only change I noticed is this: MySQL v4.0.12, which was done over 5 days ago and should have nothing to do with searching vb.org. I don't know, but it's working, that's all that matters. ;)

Lol. Yeah, I've also decided to do the same with vBulletin.com. Also, I'm adding Chris to the 'Special Thanks' list. :)

Can somebody test this code in place of the old vB.com search? Thanks.

Tested:)

You need a search field;):p

Satan

2 corrections:)

Code:

<form action="http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/search.php" method="post" name="vbform">

should be:

Code:

<form action="http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/search.php" method="post" name="vbform" target="_blank">

Code:

<td><type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="30" value="" tabindex="1" />&nbsp;<select name="forumchoice[]" tabindex="3">

should be:

Code:

<td><input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="30" value="" tabindex="1" />&nbsp;<select name="forumchoice[]" tabindex="3">

You missed the input in input type;)

Satan

Oops. Lol! Thanks Chris!

FIXED!

Very nice. Looks tons better and much more impressive. Good job shovel and hellsatan. :)

NP shovel;):)

Thanks WEF. :)

I've made a couple of useful (to me, anyway) tweaks for this hack. If you replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
<td><a href="http://www.vbulletin.org/" target="_blank">vBulletin.org Search</a></td>

with:

PHP Code:


		
			
<td><a href="https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getnew"" target="_blank">vBulletin.org Search</a></td>

and replace:

PHP Code:


		
			
<td><a href="http://www.vbulletin.com/" target="_blank">vBulletin.com Search</a></td>

with:

PHP Code:


		
			
<td><a href="http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/search.php?do=getnew" target="_blank">vBulletin.com Search</a></td>

you can search for any new posts by just clicking on the link.

Oh that's neat. Thanks Bob. :)

Nice idea Bob, but I removed the links on mine due to the fact that IMO it looks too clustered...

What I might do, is add 3 links at the bottom of the table saying "Get New Posts", 2 with the ones you put above, and one with:

PHP Code:


		
			
<a href="$bburl/search.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getnew" target="_blank">$bbtitle Search</a>

:)

Satan

What do you mean "too clustered"? By doing it that way, you just make the words into a link. Clustered would be more like adding 3 more links than needed. And one of those links is for vbulletin.com. You won't get anything by doing "&action=getnew" on vb3, you have to use "?do=getnew". I got it straight off of their site.

I know Boofo me old plum - I forgot to change the name of the Search;):p

And I didn't like the large mass of links - It makes it look clustered;)

Yeah, with the new vB3 comes the removal of all those action loops. Finally!!

I hate the do;)

Satan

well i gotta get some php books now :)

btw im thinking about using this but is there a way to posibly get the forums auto and not have it in the source i doubt it posibile but i dont know much about php

If you wanted to get the forums automatically entered for your own site, it is possible, but other sites you cannot (to my knowledge:()

Satan

No, but I'm looking at trying to search a given url for keywords using maybe JScript or PHP.
