Hi,

I would like to see a simple and clear search form up on top of the forum. I'm wondering why we need to navigate into a menu to start searchign in the forum by default ?

Any thoughts on what the best way to acheive this would be ?

Thanks,

Danny

There was a search form (input textbox) feature in K 1.5; this was replaced by the Search tab that you now see in K 1.6. There is nothing preventing you from building a form and linking it to the Kunena search function. As Kunena is an open source project you have complete access to all the source files to accomplish this. The best way to achieve this would be to build your own Kunena template to display this form element but, unfortunately, I can't tell you how to do everything that you want to do in the space of a few minutes.

The companion Wiki site has information - still a work-in-progress at the moment, sorry - that gives a basic guide to building your own K 1.6 template.

If you figure this out please post.
I LOVE it when there is a quick search form on each page.

I don't understand why they would replace with tab.
I am guessing it must be less hard on server.

My Joomla template has a search field but don't like the global search.
Anyone know the code to replace this to search forum only?

I am running Kunena 1.6.0-RC3

Hi.
i was searching for this... but this module is for legacy version. can you please upgrade it for native joomla... that would be really help...

Thanks in advance..

Edit: never-mind. i fixed it manually.. if someone want to add code manually. use this.

Open components/com_kunena/templates/default/menu.php

Add this code in the end.
Code:
<!-- Custom Search Position --> <div class="custom-search"> <form action="<?php echo CKunenaLink::GetSearchURL('advsearch'); ?>" method="post" id="ksearchform" name="adminForm"> <input id="kkeywords" type="text" class="ks input" name="q" size="15" value="Search" onblur="if(this.value=='') this.value='Search';" onfocus="if(this.value=='Search') this.value='';" /> <input id="kkeywordfilter" type="hidden" name="titleonly" value="0" /> <input type="submit" value="Go" class="kbutton ks"/> </form> </div>

Add this code in your template css file.
Code:
.custom-search { position: absolute; top: 77px; right: 47px; }

Change top and right position if its not fix with your layout.

here is my site previews.

Which template css file? I use the default template and still I am having troubles, also I'm using the most up to date kunena. This is what it currently looks like: hikrs.com/forums/index
Notice the alignment is not quite right. I modified pretty much all the css files in the template/default/css perhaps I might be modifying the wrong one.
