Enable search

I'm sure I have missed something very obvious, but I can't seem to get search to work (I had it working fine as an add on with CE3).

I have moved the 'search' directory to the site root, configured the search template in ttg-be/admin and added a 'Search' item to my menu but still no joy.

My site is http://stalkinglight.com

Thanks for any help, I'm sure it will be a d'oh moment for me when I figure it out. smile

Re: Enable search

You've added the Search label to the menu but you've not provided the target.  D'oh!

Re: Enable search

Check the gallery template you're using for search. Your Publisher admin shows it to be "stalkinglight" but when I go to
http://stalkinglight.com/ttg-be/templat … lkinglight
I see that this is made with CE3 Pages.
Make sure that it's a CE4 Gallery

Re: Enable search

the target is the search directory? if so, it's there, and I've done all the steps in search setup I think.

In the navigation section of Site Info. You've put Search in the Label area but nothing in the Target area. It should be /search/

In your search template, make sure that the block is being displayed: Color Palette > Content/Description: Display on Page should be checked

Re: Enable search

d'oh. I had put the target in before but not turned on 'display on page' so had gone off looking for some phplugins mods. Thanks for the help, working now. smile

Re: Enable search

yay!
I see that you also have a broken web fonts issue when visiting your  site using either Firefox or IE.
Here's the cure: http://ce3wiki.theturninggate.net/doku. … _web_fonts
