Mini Mods - [OzzModz] Extended Search Links In Navbar

[B][SIZE=3]Another mod brought to you by,


This is a cool little addon that will add some good search links in the navbar for you and your members to use.

This can be really useful to you as a admin, and to your mods, to see if there is any unanswered threads on your site that need attention.

Note: As of now this is only compatible with vB version 4.2.0 and above (which has the Navigation Manager). If there is enough requests for it, I will see about making it compatible with all v4.x

It is a simple installation, just import the product XML, product-ozzy_extended_search Or if you want the links to show up on the Forum Tab, and the What's New Tab, import the product XML, product-ozzy_extended_search_2

You can edit the options under the settings, Ozzy: Extended Search Links Settings


Possible links to show your members

• Link that searches for all their threads.
• Link that searches for all their posts.
• Link that searches for all their threads, in a forum, if they are in that forum.

What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

v1.0.1 Fixed a issue with some sites getting a error about adding more constraints to your search.

Cool mod. Just installed and the menu comes up with an error in it.

I see some of the navigation items did not get exported for some reason, stand by, and I will see what is gong on.

Ok I think I got it sorted, uninstall the mod, and re install with the new XML.

[fleshy66]

That fixed the links "View my threads" and "View my posts" but when I click them now it comes up with this.

Please add more constraints to your search. Searches that return all or most of the database are a bad idea.

[ozzy47]

Hmmm, I don't get that on my dev board, can you try from your profile page, clicking on the Find latest posts and Find latest started threads links, as it uses the same type of links.

[fleshy66]

Yeah thats the first thing I did. Works fine from the profile.

[ozzy47]

Hmmm, ok can you go to the Navigation Manager, click on the Forum Tab, scroll down till you see, View My Threads (Link) edit that, and then in the field, Target URL, change what is there to this:

search.php?{session.sessionurl}do=finduser&userid={session.userid}&starteronly=1&contenttype=vBForum_Thread

Then see if you get the same results.

[fleshy66]

That just fixed the View My Threads parts.Works well by the way.
The error still comes up in View My Posts still.
Thanks.
