BoardTracker Search Mod v2 - a full search engine for your board!
Developer Last Online: Mar 2012 
BoardTracker Search Mod - Version 2
This search hack replaces the built in vb search with boardtracker search and results are fully integrated with your board. Search results can be threads from your board or all boards or a select group of boards - your choice! Once installed, search from the search box on any page will pull results from boardtracker and display them within your board. 'Advanced Search' can still link to the existing vb search script or you can disable or restrict access to specific users (ie. admins, mods, paying members etc). Results can be formated in any way you want with some simple template variables. Options control panel allows you to easily switch the boardtracker search mod on or off so you can switch between boardtracker and vb search whenever you want. The following configuration options/defaults exist: Switch search on/off Switch 'safe filter' on/off Switch global search option on/off Board ID - you can limit search to just your board, or several boards you choose or ALL boards indexed by boardtracker. Category ID - you can define a category on boardtracker and searches will only pull results from that category. Default Sort Order - you can sort results by relevancy or by post date. Default Search Scope - results can be limited to last day, week, month, year or all time. Default Search Query - a search term that will be executed whenever the boardtracker search script is called directly with no params. Find Posts By User - replace the search links on user profiles and postbits. Internal vB Search Allowed Usergroups - specify which usergroups are allowed to still use the built in vb search (search.php) and redirect all others to the bt search (searchbt.php). Leave empty to allow all users to still access search.php User selections on the search form override the defaults. The mod is very easy to install and consists of 1 php script to upload, 1 product xml file to install, 1 simple template edit plus some optional template edits. The xml product file creates one new template, an options panel and a few phrases. You can see a demo here which has the search set to another board for demo purposes (since there are no actual posts on the demo board to search  )If your board is not yet indexed by BoardTracker, make sure to submit it!  ## New features in version 2.. Search posts by username Search in specific forums Search in related forums Search by boardtracker category RSS feed and alerts for searches Global search option Works with bad words search filter Block or restrict the built in search to specific usergroups More integration with vb search links (such as from member profile) More widgets in the control panel to play with updates: v2.0.1 - fixed small typo in one phrase setting v2.0.2 - fixed bug in searchbt.php affecting some people. To upgrade, just upload the new searchbt.php, no other action required. v2.0.3 - minor html change in templates - not a required upgrade v2.0.4 - update to searchbt.php v2.0.5 - small change to 'stopwords' in search_boardtracker template v2.0.6 - added adv=1 to advanced search link (in plugin) to open search options automatically. Simplified navbar template edits (needed if installing tags mod also). Added 'search this forum' edits. v2.0.7 - updated for new BoardTracker 2010. To upgrade, upload searchbt.php, install xml, minor template edits (param names) Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information. Show Your Support
