I just installed this, and don't seem to see the search difference...

I did the navbar edit, but I'm still getting the normal search, and I have it active in VB Options.

Now I want ONLY show my board/site. I assume I need to wait for my site to be indexed before I can get a Board ID? Also, I assume the sites are indexed by spiders? I saw mention of a "BoardTracker" user, but I don't have one..

I'm kind of lost alittle.. I did submit my site, so hopefully this becomes clearer once it gets added.

Make sure you updated all instances of the search form html.

You'll get a board id as soon as we process it, before it is indexed. An email with instructions will be sent when that happens.

Do you think you could add this use to the plugin?

http://www.boardtracker.com/cgi-bin/display_member.pl?board=$BOARD_ID&member=$USER_ID

For the moment I've used this:

BOARD_URL/searchbt.php?search=&order=0&user=$username&scope= 4&cat=1&frm=-1

The problem is that in this way, if a user uses strange characters in their name, the search does not work properly.

You want to be able to do search user threads by userid instead of username to put in the links on the profile page? Can you give me an example of a username with strange characters that doesn't work?

Yup, here you go: http://forumgamesradar.futuregamer.i...3#post10871873

Check this user, clicking on his profile and selecting "Trova altri messaggi di ? Constantine ?". That's the "find other messages by" function...

Ok now you can use 'userid=12345' instead of 'user=name' in the links, like so..

searchbt.php?userid=52671

Thats only for the direct links to get all threads by a user, not for the search form which needs the username.

Cool! Now it works perfectly. :)

It seems to have problems with accented characters in thread titles. It substitutes accented characters with ?

It should be working properly now.
Please confirm :)

Make sure to also check out our very cool thread tagging and tag search system for vb3.5 here!

It allows your members to tag threads and provides a fully integrated search engine - similar in appearance to this mod - which also shows a tag cloud and related tags and provides advanced seach options.

Tag links can use mod_rewrite or standard links and there's lots of options to play with in the control panel. Your tag cloud can easily be put on any page you want - even on other sites!

Tags are stored locally in your db as well as indexed by boardtracker and again all the heavy work of searching is handled by our servers!

Nope, it doesn't.

Check this link, there are two problems:

http://forumgamesradar.futuregamer.i...4&cat=1&frm=-1

First problem is all accented characters are shown with strange characters. I hope you can recognize them, if not just let me know and I'll do a screengrab for you.

Second problem concerns the multipage links. By using this format:
http://forumgamesradar.futuregamer.i...rder=0&scope=4

And so reverting to the username and not the userid, they invalidate your fix for all pages save the first.
