Pre-sale question about search.php URL's

[anarkopunx]

Hi,

i am seriously thinking of buying vbulletin but i have a question first:

i currently run a website under phpBB. I use a forum for a lyrics database.

I have posts for each of the artist names. In these posts there are link to the lyrics. I use a link to the search engine with the band name as keywords so it find all posts related to it.

unfortunatly with VB the URL looks like this : search.php?do=process

so i don't know if i'll be able to convert all my posts and edit them to make a search with VB

i'd need a url like this:

search.php?do=process&searchkeywords=The_Band_Name _Here

would it be possible?

Here are a couple examples of using query in the query string:

• vbulletin.org/forum/search.php?do=process&query="Pre-sale+question+about+search.php+URL's"
• vbulletin.org/forum/search.php?do=process&query=Pre-sale+question+about+search.php+URL's

and is there a way to add a precise forum to that?

i.e searching in only forum ID X
