Long overdue Search added


Recommended Posts

I added Search capability using our Google program on the main page side menu.. default searches are limited to Neowin.net but you can also search the web by selecting the other radio button.

Its linked to our AdSense program so all searches should also get us revenue :D

Timan helped me skin it to the main page styles (Y)

I think it would be a good idea, if it's possible, to have this search replace the IPB one that's at the top of the forum index. It's much faster than the IPB one and since that search box doesn't use any of the ipb advanced search features it would be ideal.

cool :) it would be AWESOME if someone made that into a firefox plugin :) i'd use it constantly

To get this search working as a quick search in Firefox, follow this guide: https://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=359247

For name, put Neowin

For location, put http://www.google.com/custom?domains=Neowi...arch=Neowin.net (Right click, copy link location)

For keyword, put whatever you want, I suggest neowin

Then when you type, for example "neowin vista" into the address bar, you will be using that search engine to search for vista.

Well, I imagine you could just use the Google search tool and append "site:neowin.net" to your searches, and you'd get essentially the same functionality. Good work Neobond!
