The following options are available:
- Display posts from previous xx days
- Sorted by Post date, User name, Subject, Attachement, Post length
- Show the post of all/definite users (with number posts)

  » Show only posts in which the search string was found (v1.20)
  » Own replacement for highlighted words possible (v1.20)

This hack is wonderful, this should definately be in vB 3. I specially like the possibility of searching in a thread only, since I always get lost when I get 80 threads as a result, each one of them with 50 pages!

Congrats and thanks for a great hack!

Hmmm, still can't get the background color to change to my forum's colors...it's purple. Am I missing something or is there another way to do it? I tried both way (reinstalling and manually). Thanks again.

Opp, my bad. I got it through my main colors page.

bad_madman · #15 06-17-2002, 03:29 PM

Search in template showthread_adds for:

Code:

<td colspan=4 align=center>

replace with:

Code:

<td colspan=4 bgcolor="{ tableheadbgcolor }" align=center>

Set for "tableheadbgcolor" your 'replacement'...

sorry :nervous:
Please, test it. I then change the Download. Thx.

edit:
1. not template "showthread" but template "showthread_adds"
2. { tableheadbgcolor } -> without blanks !

ok installed, got a small problem tho, every search takes me the the new reply of the thread im currently looking at

bad_madman · #17 06-17-2002, 04:29 PM

@Recluse: After the search the complete thread is always shown. Become the search result (the words) highlightedly (highlight function). Do you mean this?

Cool, yep, it works. Thanks.

@bluecat: Good. Very good. :classic:
Thx for your report. The Download was actualized.

bluecat · #20 06-17-2002, 05:06 PM

For what it's worth, I added a new replacement variable (Replacement > Add) and created {tableheadbgcolor2}, made this color it's own and edited it in the showthread_add to the new variable, giving me the option to change just this table's colors.

Thanks again for the great hack.
