I am wanting to purchase this script but it is not clear if there is any way to exclude pages from showing up in the search results.
Does anyone know if this is possible, and if so, what has to be done to accomplish it?
Thanks, Simeon

Yes pages can be excluded.
They can be excluded with regex which gives great control over choosing what file names to ignore.

How is this being accomplished in the interface? Does it require programming or is a simple gui type of process?
One more time…
Can someone explain to me how to do this?
How do you make the results show up “inside” your website “on its own page” instead of going to a new window with the results?
I frame? If so, how?
Thanks in advance.

You can copy the iframe demo:
<form method="post" action="search.php?iframe=true" id="searchform" target="iframesearch">
Search Site Content: <input name="search" id="searchbox" value="test" type="text" /> <input name="go" value="Search" type="submit" />
</form>
<iframe name="iframesearch" scrolling="auto" src="search.php?iframe=true&search=test" id="iframesearch" frameborder="0" style="width:100%; height:500px;"></iframe>

Or create customsearch.php with this content:
<iframe name="iframesearch" scrolling="auto" src="search.php?iframe=true&search=<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_REQUEST['search']);?>" frameborder="0" id="iframesearch" style="width:100%; height:500px;"></iframe>
then submit to this page with
<form method="get" action="customsearch.php"> <input name="search" type="text" /> </form>
that’s a bit more of an advanced setup – not supported out of the box

A third option is to put your website header and footer into the corresponding header.php and footer.php files (like you have done)
Just put more of the header into those files – so that the header shows the full website header, and the footer shows the full normal website footer.
Shouldn’t that work?
Also, how do you exclude the menus from being indexed in the results?
Thanks.

Can I get a refund?
No support whatsoever.
I will buy a script from another author on this site.
Thank you.
I owe you a HUGE apology! All of this is my fault (not yours). If I would have paid better attention to your instructions and examples I wouldn’t have had the issues I had.
I am very sorry!
**Please remove the above comments by me.
I followed your instructions and now it works EXACTLY as it’s supposed to.
I was the one in the wrong – not you.
Please accept my sincerest apologies.
Respectfully, Leonard Michael
Hello dtbaker,
One question only, can I use this item out of the box in a site with a different language than english?.. I mean with letters like ñ, á, é, ...
I read in the comments about it and before purchasing it I thought it would be better to ask you.
Thank you and all the best.
Hello, anybody there?! (please see the comment above)
Thank you!
How do you block access to folders?
Anybody here could, please, answer this question:
can I use this item out of the box in a site with a different language than english?.. I mean with letters like ñ, á, é, ...
Author seems not to be over here (11 days after the first question)
Wolfdogg I think the answer is in the FAQ , have a look just in case.
Thank you!

Hi, I just bought your script and its very simple install too. How would I limit the search queries and if they want more, than it will be in the pagination number? Thanks
I know I’l probably missed something simple, but i keep getting this error message at the top of my search results. I ‘m just testing on wamp server at the moment. But I’m still getting the the search results along with this message.
Any help gratfully received.
Hi, i have a problem with special characters, please help!!
Is it possible to edit this somehow to work with WordPress?
I like the way your results page looks, and it would be great on my WP site

No sorry, but if you are familiar with PHP you might be able to get my other dynamic php search engine working with wordpress. It searches a website just like google does, based on links.
Brilliant this. So easy to get working and integrate within a site perfectly both on local then linux hosting. Slight problem with it not working on a windows base? Tried everything with permissions before trying it on my own linux based host to make sure I wasn’t going mental. Worked fine instantly. Any advice for using on windows hosting?
Cheers
Right, forget that post above it was the actual search.php file that had to have permissions 644. Didn’t seem to bother the other domains but kept getting a SoftException in Application.cpp:256: group write error due to above not being set.
So to redeem myself I say – buy this thing now as it makes light work of the job! top work!
Installed on my IIS7 server and it is working with the exception of I jet half a page of: “Warning: file_put_contents(phpsearch_files/search_cache/efba56bc8ec0829cac18461e9858fd0e): failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Bachman\search.php on line 365 ” repeated over and over. How do I fix this? Also is there a way to prevent the search from searching my menus?
dtbaker
replied
Please contact hosting provider and ask them to enable php write permissions on your search_cache/ folder.
Please check faq for menu.
do not buy it! does not work and no support

please send in a support ticket if you require some modifications to get the script working: http://support.dtbaker.com.au/support-ticket.html
please also look at the php search engine if you wish to search php files: http://codecanyon.net/item/php-search-engine/89499
This is what I get when I test. Any help?
Warning: require_once(phpsearch_files/config.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/content/s/c/o/scottcgilmore/html/search.php on line 19
