I know I do not post all that much... but I am a regular on the site and would like to know if this can be done. On other forums at the top of the forum page they have a link to search the forum. Can you add this??? If it is already there... can we make is more visable in some way because I can not seem to find the search feature. I know its there, but it is not easy to find. At least in my honest opionion.

   

   Thanks,

Cobra this option could reduce the number of duplacate posts on ur forums and save u some work. I'm Getting annoyed answering questions over and over again aswell.

   

   Shouldnt be to hard to do youll need to edit the template a bit in the header.php of the template you gotta find the section where you would like everything to be near and you might even be able to insert an html code depending on the structure of ur header. im so so with php, its to only programing i moderately know >.< anything about. If ya send it to me via msn ill see wat i can do.

I now see it in the drop down box... I guess I am like most people, if its not right out in the open to bite me in the face I miss it.... just think it would eliminate a lot of people posting questions that have already been asked if they have a easy search forums button.

   

   Thanks for thinking about it and looking into it. Its your forum... so ok either way, besides... now I know where it is :)

cobra it wud actually b in forums.sections.tpl in your skin file all u wud need to do is change it from the dropdown box to something like

   
<a href="plug.php?p=search&frm=1">Search</a>

   for a simple serach link

   

   you will find this html code immediately under

   <!-- BEGIN: MAIN -->
