Message when no search results?

Is it possible to include a message when no results are returned from a search?

At the moment I’m just getting a blank page.

You can use something like
<code>
<txp:search_result_count /> articles found.
</code>
Read zem’s article.

Yea, I tried that, and it displays “x articles found” when there are some articles to find, but nothing at all when there aren’t any!?!?

I think you need <txp:article pgonly=1 /> before the search results count. Otherwise, there is nothing to count for the tag.

You can use this plugin if you want to show something more interesting than “0 articles found.”
