My forum is 3.7.4, and I have an ebay affiliate account (EPN).

Can someone tell me how they do this, they have an ebay search box inline on their forum home. I'd like to do the same for my "Auctions" forum in Market Place, and I'd like to make sure that it send people to the ebay search results with my EPN affiliate (rover) code.

I have one too (Link)
I do it with a php file combined with code I add to the forum description in forum manager... You can add any HTML code you want to the forum description and it will show where it does in your picture.

Do you have the code to create the box? The one I have I got from a 3rd party (long story) so I can't distribute it but I'd think it would be something available online somewhere, maybe ebay affiliate tools?

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
