search function

[oops]

how it works?

[Oliver Georgi]

Create a new content part "search".
Fill in all fields and have a look at the article.

Wirldcards are allowed: * (any char/s), ? (exact 1 char)

The result will be listed on the same page. You can create multiple search content parts.

You can create custom search forms!
Put a normal HTML form anywhere inside your template but use the following replacement tags:
name of the search input field: ###search_input_field###
name the form action: ###search_input_action:SEARCH_FORM_ARTICLE_ID###
form method sent to: method="post"
if you wish that the search value should be filled in the search input field use: value="###search_input_value###"

Search is not finished yet for handling multiple result pages in frontend.
The backend search form template field is not used at the moment.

one question: how remove other content parts from search results page?

[Sphinx]

Hi,

i've tryed this but the cms dosn't replace the
###search_input_action:SEARCH_FORM_ARTICLE_ID###


I've put a html part into the page:

Code: Select all

<form method="POST" action=###search_input_action:SEARCH_FORM_ARTICLE_ID###>
<input type="text" name=###search_input_field### 
 size="20"><input type="submit" value="Suchen" name="B1"></p>
</form>

Dosn't work...


PS: I use a custom form because i want to insert a search form into the menu

Eg try something like

Code: Select all

<form action="###search_input_action:XX###" method="post">
<input name="###search_input_field###" type="text" size="10" maxlength="200" value="###search_input_value###" style="font-size:10px; width:75px;"> <input type="submit" value="Go" style="font-size:10px;">
</form>

Oh no, a little problem more....

Look at http://cms2.pingino.de

When i search 4 test or 4 kontakt then it shows me the correct informations.

But when the user is in an submenu then the search dosn't work. Any ideas?

[oops]

search form template field is not used at the moment

@Sphinx:

You are a little wrong with your search content - and try to set your form action in quotes.

Hi All!

I'm trying to use this code in my Search page with ID=7

<form action="###search_input_action:7###" method="post">
<input type="text" name="###search_input_field###" size="10" maxlength="250" value="###search_input_value###" style="font: normal 11px/11px sans-serif; border: solid 1px #94A4BF; background: #727A89; padding: 2px; color: #FFCC00;">
<input type="submit" value="Go" style="font-size:10px;">
</form>

but nothing returned
any ideas??

Thanks in advance

Hi Dennis,

if not solved yet: i used your code in my template, changed only the 7 into my own search id and it worked fine
So the code is ok

Now:

when creating a search page (id=7 in your case) this code (see above) should only be used on other pages or in the template.

Please just state where you put the code into, i'll try to help

regards

maybe i'm way stupid to get it but when i use this in my template:

Code: Select all

<form action="###search_input_action:24###" method="post">
<input name="###search_input_field###" type="text" size="10" maxlength="200" value="###search_input_value###" class="input">
<input type="submit" value="Otsi" class="input-button">
</form>

it only works on the page that has the search content part on it ID=24 for me. And it doesn't work on any other page. I use header/main/footer layout and the code is in main.

can anyone give me some clue?

Thanks.
