What It Does:
Combines the Wiki & Forum search fields, allowing users to search the Wiki from your forum. If you are using vbWiki Pro and using the vBulletin skin, now you can get rid of the extra search box, because vBulletin's will do both!

The way it works is: if you are searching the forum, it takes you to the normal forum results page. If you select the option to Search the Wiki, instead it automatically takes you to the Special:Search page displaying the appropriate results, forwarding the article, or if it doesn't exist, telling you to create the page.

*** Changelog ***
As of Version 1.0.3:
- fixed bug where Advanced Search for posts would return threads
- updated template edits: search_forums

As of Version 1.0.2:
- Fixed bug where uninstalling other CES products would make some settings disappear

As of Version 1.0.1:
- If article exists, load the article.
- If article doesn't exist, display "you can create" message.

Hi,

I have vBulletin 3.6.7, MediaWiki, and vbWikiPro installed.

I've installed this Plugin with but it's not replacing the old Search popup in the vBulletin navbar. Any advice? Thanks!

There are template edits mentioned in the readme.txt.

Hi thincom2000, thanks for your quick response!

My current version of vBulletin is 3.6.7. Has the replacement code changed with version vBulletin 3.6.7? I was able to modify the popup box, but the change I had to make to the navbar Search popup was a little different than the readme.txt file, described below.

When I submit a search in the popup box on the vbulletin pages it works fairly well. Though, if no Article search results are found it redirects me to my website's login page.

When I use the popup on the Wiki side, it takes me to the vBulletin search page and does not auto fill the keywords for the query field.

For the Wiki side, do I need to configure MediaWiki or vbWikiPro for the hook? Any ideas?

For the Special:Search page url, the following format worked best for my environment:

http://www.yourdomain.com/forum/index.php?ns0=1&searchx=Search

* the keywords will be appended by code in format &search=keywords

Thanks!

<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
	
	<if condition="$show['searchbuttons']">
	<!-- header quick search form -->
	<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="navbar_search_menu" style="display:none">
		<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1" border="0">

I replaced the above with the following code ...

<!-- NAVBAR POPUP MENUS -->
	
	<if condition="$show['searchbuttons']">
	<!-- header quick search form -->
	<div class="vbmenu_popup" id="navbar_search_menu" style="display:none">

		</tr>
		<tr>
			<td class="vbmenu_option" title="nohilite">
<!-- *** OMITTING THE FOLLOWING FIELDS ***
				<input type="hidden" name="do" value="process" />

				<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
-->
				<input type="text" class="bginput" name="query" size="20" />&nbsp;$gobutton<br />
			</td>
		</tr>
