Implementing site wide search ?
 

How can this be achieved, at the same time returning results from the vb boards on my site ?
Are
( other pages of the site includes link directory, user gallery, articles, guides etc etc )

yea i been looking for that, liek how do u get a search engine to search your own site, and itll say sumthing like, 13 MATCHED YOUR QUESRY or w/e

I NEED THIS!

You can do that for free with Google. Check out the Google site.

Hmm can't seem to find it, any headsup ?

You can do it with a 3rd party like google, or you can code your own search engine for your site. How you would code it would depend on how your storing data tho.

Hmm....perhaps I should try to code it myself, and make it such that I base my site search on vb's search.
I hope vb's search isn't too difficult to go through .....

are there any scripts available?

bump

their is really no point in bumping a thread less then 24hrs old. have you tried hotscripts.com their are tons of search engine scripts and tutorials.

Not to mention bumping a thread that isn't yours....sorry but I find it a tad rude.

sorry, i thought u needed a response just as bad as i did

sorry for any inconvenience

Out of curiousity, in another thread you mentioned you wanted to start your own search engine. I would have thought that you would know how to implement an internal site search using a simple server-side script or a hosted script.

That's precisely the first thing that came to my mind too ....

lol, the site search engine scripts and all that was gonna be done mostly by my friend, all i know how to do is install the thing and spruce it up with html, all that scipt stuff makes me dizzy, like Dean C said, its a grout thing, and that wouldnt have been my job ;]
