Actually there is a small error in the code..
 In both places where you see this.. ipb.member['id'] ==1 It should actually be this.. ipb.member['id'] >=1 Just change the == to >= I'll upload a updated version soon but anyway the only change needed is what you see above. |

Hey, this killed the search bar that shows up after logging in for me too.
Check it out: http://www.thetaobums.com Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm assuming it's an issue with this code here: CODE <if="ipb.vars['bt_search_active'] ==1 and ipb.member['id'] ==1"> <form action="{ipb.script_url}" method="get"> <input type="hidden" name="act" value="SearchBT"> <input type=hidden name="pagenav_add" value="act=searchBT"> <input type="text" size="30" name="search" /> <input class="button" type="image" src="{ipb.vars['img_url']}/login-button.gif" /> </form> </if> <if="ipb.vars['bt_search_active'] ==0 and ipb.member['id'] ==1"> <form action="{ipb.script_url}act=Search&CODE=01&forums=all" method="post"> <input type="text" size="30" name="keywords" onfocus="this.value=''" value="{ipb.lang['enter_search_words']}" /> <input class="button" type="image" src="{ipb.vars['img_url']}/login-button.gif" /> </form> </if> Thanks!

Or else maybe someone moved it to somewhere else on the front page. Many skins do move it and then it would maybe be in a different area, maybe in all global html->global_board_header Yep, that could be the reason. If you have a search box on the index page then try to find the template which contains the search form html and modify/replace it. If you don't have a search box there at all then just ignore that part of the install instructions. |

Are you sure its not there? It is in my version.. I just reverted to the original template again to make sure and it is there..
It is in the 'if/else' section that adds the login form to the index page for guests or the search box for visitors who are logged in. Try copy/paste the entire template into notepad and use 'find' to look for 'search'.. its easier than manually looking through the html. |

While installing BT_Search_IPB_1.0.1.zip on a 2.1.6 board I came across this:
CODE open: Board Index/PageTop find: <else> <form action="{ipb.script_url}act=Search&CODE=01&forums=all" method="post"> <input type="text" size="30" name="keywords" onfocus="this.value=''" value="{ipb.lang['enter_search_words']}" /> <input class="button" type="image" src="{ipb.vars['img_url']}/login-button.gif" /> </form> </else> # replace with: <if="ipb.vars['bt_search_active'] ==1 and ipb.member['id'] ==1"> <form action="{ipb.script_url}" method="get"> <input type="hidden" name="act" value="SearchBT"> <input type=hidden name="pagenav_add" value="act=searchBT"> <input type="text" size="30" name="search" /> <input class="button" type="image" src="{ipb.vars['img_url']}/login-button.gif" /> </form> </if> <if="ipb.vars['bt_search_active'] ==0 and ipb.member['id'] ==1"> <form action="{ipb.script_url}act=Search&CODE=01&forums=all" method="post"> <input type="text" size="30" name="keywords" onfocus="this.value=''" value="{ipb.lang['enter_search_words']}" /> <input class="button" type="image" src="{ipb.vars['img_url']}/login-button.gif" /> </form> </if> ### Sorry no search section in Board Index/PageTop Any suggestions? |

The way the search mod works is by callling a Javascript from the HTML page by the browser. Nothing is executed on the server. Therefore there is no server risk at all.

thanks for the answer. I was also wondering if security is OK.
Invision had huge security problems the last few weeks ... one of them included a way to upload file via an exploit in the search (after posting a specially crafted post and search for it). This probably didn't work with the boardtracker search, but I'd just like to make sure you looked into it. thx |
