ok reinstalled to the new version for the multi quote hack, this is what i get when searching

Warning: Variable passed to each() is not an array or object in /home/cra++++/public_html/forums/showthread.php on line 750

	//highlight words for search engine
	if (isset($highlight)) {

 749 	reset($replacewords);
 750 	 while (list($key,$val)=each($replacewords)){
			$post['message']=preg_replace("/(^| |\n|\r|\t|\]|>|\")(".$val.")(([\.,]+[ $\n\r\t])|$|\"|<|\[| |\n|\r|\t)/si", "\\1<highlight>\\2</highlight>\\3", $post['message']);
			}
		}
	}

Strange. Which version of vB do you use? It seems to be an old version.
Replace the complete highlight-part by this code.

PHP Code:

// words to highlight from the search engine
$replacewords = array();
if (isset($highlight) && $highlight != '') {
  $highlight = urldecode($highlight);
  $highlightwords=explode(" ",str_replace("/","\/",quotemeta($highlight)));
  while (list($key,$val)=each($highlightwords)) {
    $val = strtolower($val);
    if ($val=='or' OR $val=='and' OR $val=='not') {
      continue;
    }
    if ($allowwildcards) {
      $val = str_replace("\*", "[a-zA-z]+", $val);
    }
    $replacewords[$key]="$val";
  }
} 


edit:
code changed

Update from v1.00 to 1.10:
Note: Remove all blanks between { and }
for example: ="{ secondaltcolor}
-------------- ^

search in template 'showthread_adds' for:

<input type="hidden" name="threadid" value="$threadid">

and replace with:

<input type="hidden" name="threadid" value="$threadid"><input type="hidden" name="goto" value="$goto">

Add new template "showthread_adds_notfound" and copy & paste this in:

<table bgcolor="{ pagebgcolor}" width="{ tablewidth}" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td width="10"><img width="10" height="1" src="{ imagesfolder}/space.gif" alt=""></td><td width="100%"><!-- spacer -->
<table cellpadding="{ tableouterborderwidth}" cellspacing="0" border="0" bgcolor="{ tablebordercolor}" { tableouterextra} width="{ contenttablewidth}" align="center"><tr><td>
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="{ tableinnerborderwidth}" border="0" { tableinnerextra} width="100%">
<tr>
	<td bgcolor="{ secondaltcolor}" width="100%" nowrap><br><br><p align="center"><normalfont>No posts found</b><br>Please <a href="javascript:history.back()"><b>go back</b></a></normalfont></p><br></td>
</tr>
</table>
</td></tr></table>
<!-- spacer --></td><td width="10"><img width="10" height="1" src="{ imagesfolder}/space.gif" alt=""></td></tr></table>

Search in file "showthread.php" for:

$pagenav = getpagenav($totalposts,"showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&perpage=$perpage$threadnavi".iif(isset($highlight), "&highlight=$highlight", ""));

and replace with:

if ($totalposts<1) eval("\$postbits=\"".gettemplate("showthread_adds_notfound")."\";");
$pagenav = getpagenav($totalposts,"showthread.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&threadid=$threadid&perpage=$perpage$threadnavi".iif(isset($highlight), "&highlight=$highlight", ""));

That's all!

bad_madman,

Maybe its me, but I had to remove this hack. It caused my showthread page queries to go from 23 to anywhere from 50-89 queries. Anyone else see this?

[bad_madman]

This is interesting. :surprised: I will have a look at this more exactly in my forum...
