Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
thebombsite,
- I don’t exactly get what mem admin parse does but I’ll ask Manfre about that and see if it can help. Thanks for the heads-up.
- Yes, it will still use ob1-googlenav. Since that plugin is working fine I see no need to re-invent the wheel.
- No problem that you ain’t a coder, a lot of easy solutions come from non-coders since you don’t think in code and don’t see any problems in implementing something that a coder would think impossible.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
I never see any problems but that’s MY problem. :) As for being a non-coder I’m sort of in between. I can read what the code is doing and find the part that does something I want to look at and then I can probably hack it or create a new function that is similar but just tweaks something my way. As for writing something from scratch……. maybe next year. :grin:

That in my eyes is not a problem as long as you have some people that at times hold your wildest dreams back some notches to get in touch with reality :). But ideas are good even if they are “way out there”.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
Hi obeewan,
Has there been any progress on the new version? I hate textpattern’s built-in search and would love what you have proposed. My main needs right now are to be able to search links. Maybe have it search all by default and then a dropdown to search only links or only articles. Kind of like Amazon’s search.
Once you get this finished you should submit it to Dean and try to get the code built-in.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
I am using this with rc5. When I use it to filter out stuff (like in “without the words” or “date”) the search results count might say 0 results but it still list the articles as if I hadn’t filtered them out.
example: search for “global warming” without the word “kyoto” it still brings up the atricles that have the word kyoto in them.
Has anybody else run into this problem, and if so do you know how to fix it?

Well I ran with the odd problem for a while but basically the plug-in just plain needs updating which is what Henrik is doing at the moment. Hopefully. :)

You need not to worry, I am working on it but I currently am on holiday (my first for some years) for about another week or so.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
Nice to know Henrik. :) Just reading that post by tinyfly again, how on earth can you have the phrase “global warning” without the word “kyoto”? Maybe the search knows better. :)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
Well, the “without the word” search is the least tested of the different types and may have zillions of bugs in it currently, I dunno. But yet again, the available version of the plugin is a pre-pre-pre alfa version. (Did I say it was pre-pre-pre? ;)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
By the way, if you need any testing do let me know. The search I’m using now is buggered since 4.0 so I’m not to worried about it not working properly first time. Nor second or third if it comes to it. :) And I have a fairly large site so it can do a bit of work.

I was just trying to get it to say 0 search results, but damn, that kyoto accord keeps popping up.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
stuart,
You are the one I will talk to if I need some testplattforms outside my own since you are my biggest fan of this plugin :).
tinyfly,
It might be that the without search bugs out when you use more then one search word, I’m not sure but I will re-make the code anyhow.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] ob1_advanced_search
Does anyone have this plugin working on Textpattern 4.02?
Ever since I upgraded from 1.0rc3 to 4.02 my advanced search has stopped working.

Yes, any word on this? I’m keen to upgrade the (frankly dodgy) search engine but I’m running 4.0.2 also…
What of it chaps?

Nothing yet and believe me when I say I shall be the second to know when something happens. I do know Henrik has been busy with work and moving, both at the same time, so…..
