Hello,

I love the plugin and the four addons we run - except for the search function. To my current knowledge, I would have to offer two search fields for the editorial part and the forum, which not only doesn't look professional, it also lowers the rate at which new readers get an overview of the topics offered via the search function. We are working on a large site that contains both a blog section and a forum. In addition, a large part, but not everything, is a non freely accessible member site.

The forum search apparently only delivers results from the forum, the Wordpress search only from the blogs. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid having to present multiple search fields in order not to confuse the user endlessly?

If that doesn't work so far - how are the field names for posts, tags and headlines, so I can try to integrate that even into a search plugin like Ajax Search Pro?

 

Thanks for any suggestions, Bernd
