vb.org Archive - Add-On Releases - Google/Adsense Site Search Navbar Integration

Since the vbadvanced google/adsense integration I came out with a while back I had wanted to think of a way to do this to the navbar, but I didn't really care for the old navbar's search - until the 3.6 version came out. I like this new version and I've now decided to come write my own based on what I did with my original for vbadvanced.

It's fairly simple...

Go to your admincp => Styles & Templates => Style Manager => look for your style to do this to and under All Style Options click Edit Templates

In your navigation bar, find

Code:

<!-- header quick search form -->

        <div class="vbmenu_popup" id="navbar_search_menu" style="display:none">

                <table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">

                <tr>

                        <td class="thead">$vbphrase[search_forums]</td>

                </tr>

                <tr>

                        <td class="vbmenu_option" title="nohilite">

                                <form action="search.php?do=process" method="post">

                                        <input type="hidden" name="do" value="process" />

                                        <input type="hidden" name="quicksearch" value="1" />

                                        <input type="hidden" name="childforums" value="1" />

                                        <input type="hidden" name="exactname" value="1" />

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

                                        <div><input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="25" tabindex="1001" /><input type="submit" class="button" value="$vbphrase[go]" tabindex="1004" /></div>

                                        <div style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px">

                                                <label for="rb_nb_sp0"><input type="radio" name="showposts" value="0" id="rb_nb_sp0" tabindex="1002" checked="checked" />$vbphrase[show_threads]</label>

                                                &nbsp;

                                                <label for="rb_nb_sp1"><input type="radio" name="showposts" value="1" id="rb_nb_sp1" tabindex="1003" />$vbphrase[show_posts]</label>

                                        </div>

                </tr>

                <tr>

                        <td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="search.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="4" rel="nofollow">$vbphrase[advanced_search]</a></td>

                </tr>

                $template_hook[navbar_search_menu]

                </table>

        </div>

        <!-- / header quick search form -->

and replace with

Replace pub-1234567890123456 with your pub- number
In the line <input name="cof" type="hidden" value="GALT:">, Replace value="GALT:" with your information (this contains information that controls how your search results are displayed - this won't necessarily start with GALT:).
Replace www.yoursite.com with your website in both places
Replace Yoursite.com with your website

I have updated this for 3.6.7 - there is a small change, but enough for an update.
There is a hook as well, $template_hook[navbar_search_menu], which I have a product that you can just install, but for some reason ibproarcade is conflicting with this new product.
