thx for using my mod. :)

I tried a few searches on your forum - it worked well but not as best as it could.

Just a reminder: To get the most out of this mod, make sure you follow the instructions in this post and configure your SMF accordingly - no hassles and takes only a minute.


Oh cool - thanks for the tip.  I've made those changes and it does seem a lot better.   :)

This is not a bug, but intended behavior, as described here:  http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=188513.msg1200269#msg1200269  :)

I think in most cases people will prefer searching entire forum to searching within individual boards/topics. Therefore "entire forum" is the default scope of search unless specified otherwise.


I haven't yet tested it on 1.1.2 but glad to know it's working for you. :)

If that's the intended behavior then it's working perfectly.  I wanted to make sure it was working fine.

I really love that drop down box, it helps a lot.

Hi there,
first time installer of SMF and this mod.

I have double checked the admin settings and they look fine, but I am getting this error.

Code Select
//Begin DC SMF Search Text Strings$txt['specific_topic_id'] = 'Specific topic id';$txt['search_match_mode'] = 'Match Mode';$txt['search_match_mode_whole'] = 'Match whole words only - least results, least noise';$txt['search_match_mode_smart'] = 'Smart matching - balanced';$txt['search_match_mode_any'] = 'Match any sequence - most results, most noise';$txt['search_numReplies'] = 'Replies';$txt['search_match_mode_whole_short'] = 'Match whole words only';$txt['search_match_mode_smart_short'] = 'Smart matching';$txt['search_match_mode_any_short'] = 'Match any sequence';$txt['result_summary'] = 'Show/hide result summary';$txt['result_generated'] = 'Results generated using ';$txt['zillarank'] = 'ZillaRank';$txt['search_entireforum'] = 'Entire Forum';$txt['search_thisbrd'] = 'This board';$txt['search_thistopic'] = 'This topic';$txt['search_members'] = 'Members';$txt['search_entiresite'] = 'Entire Site';$txt['search_view_all'] = 'View all';$txt['search_match_criteria'] = 'posts in this topic that match your search criteria';$txt['search_go_to_top'] = 'Go to Top';$txt['search_go_to_top_single'] = 'Top';//END DC SMF Search Text Strings //Begin DC SMF Search Text Strings$txt['specific_topic_id'] = 'Specific topic id';$txt['search_match_mode'] = 'Match Mode';$txt['search_match_mode_whole'] = 'Match whole words only - least results, least noise';$txt['search_match_mode_smart'] = 'Smart matching - balanced';$txt['search_match_mode_any'] = 'Match any sequence - most results, most noise';$txt['search_numReplies'] = 'Replies';$txt['search_match_mode_whole_short'] = 'Match whole words only';$txt['search_match_mode_smart_short'] = 'Smart matching';$txt['search_match_mode_any_short'] = 'Match any sequence';$txt['result_summary'] = 'Show/hide result summary';$txt['result_generated'] = 'Results generated using ';$txt['zillarank'] = 'ZillaRank';$txt['search_entireforum'] = 'Entire Forum';$txt['search_thisbrd'] = 'This board';$txt['search_thistopic'] = 'This topic';$txt['search_members'] = 'Members';$txt['search_entiresite'] = 'Entire Site';$txt['search_view_all'] = 'View all';$txt['search_match_criteria'] = 'posts in this topic that match your search criteria';$txt['search_go_to_top'] = 'Go to Top';$txt['search_go_to_top_single'] = 'Top';//END DC SMF Search Text Strings

this appears in the header.
Now I do know why it appears twice; when I saw it there after a successful install, I went to the admin section assuming it was the search full textmode settings that were causing it.

I then uninstalled and ensured everything was set before installing again - now there are two.

Any help most welcome :)

P.S. This appears in all themes.

Could you find and view your language file (Modifications.english.php) and see if there's any code block formatted like the following:

Code Select

//Begin DC SMF Search Text Strings
$txt['specific_topic_id'] = 'Specific topic id';
$txt['search_match_mode'] = 'Match Mode';
$txt['search_match_mode_whole'] = 'Match whole words only - least results, least noise';
$txt['search_match_mode_smart'] = 'Smart matching - balanced';
$txt['search_match_mode_any'] = 'Match any sequence - most results, most noise';

$txt['search_numReplies'] = 'Replies';
$txt['search_match_mode_whole_short'] = 'Match whole words only';
$txt['search_match_mode_smart_short'] = 'Smart matching';
$txt['search_match_mode_any_short'] = 'Match any sequence';

$txt['result_summary'] = 'Show/hide result summary';

$txt['result_generated'] = 'Results generated using ';
$txt['zillarank'] = 'ZillaRank';

$txt['search_entireforum'] = 'Entire Forum';
$txt['search_thisbrd'] = 'This board';
$txt['search_thistopic'] = 'This topic';
$txt['search_members'] = 'Members';
$txt['search_entiresite'] = 'Entire Site';

$txt['search_view_all'] = 'View all';
$txt['search_match_criteria'] = 'posts in this topic that match your search criteria';

$txt['search_go_to_top'] = 'Go to Top';
$txt['search_go_to_top_single'] = 'Top';
//END DC SMF Search Text Strings

If Modifications.english.php is supposed to be in the root folder - then I'm up a creek without a paddle `cause it's not there :|

reinstall time?

I see you use the default theme, so you should be able to find the file in /Themes/default/.

got it :)

and surprise surprise - it has the error message in that php file.

(before I forget to mention it - thanks for the Lightning fast replies!)

there was a:
?>
above the duplicated section.

So I double-checked it was a perfect duplicate, removed one and put the:
?>
at the bottom.

Problem gone :)

hehe, you have so many mods installed on your new forum - I'm not sure which mods, and in what ways they modified the search template to conflict with this mod. And since I'm not familiar with your other mods, I cannot offer to modify the template manually for you - my modification might break one or more of your other mods.

In this case, I suggest you use Daniel's mod parser to manually compare and edit your search.template.php:

Let me know if there is anything else I can help with. :)

One of our mods earlier installed the DC SMF Search tool. This has created a fault with both searching and quoting, which has remained even though we've since removed the package. Also the text "//Begin DC SMF Search Text Strings $txt['specific_topic_id'] = 'Specific topic id'; $txt['search_match_mode'] = 'Match Mode'; $txt['search_match_mode_whole'] = 'Match whole words only - least results, least noise'; $txt['search_match_mode_smart'] = 'Smart matching - balanced'; $txt['search_match_mode_any'] = 'Match any sequence - most results, most noise'; $txt['search_numReplies'] = 'Replies'; $txt['search_match_mode_whole_short'] = 'Match whole words only'; $txt['search_match_mode_smart_short'] = 'Smart matching'; $txt['search_match_mode_any_short'] = 'Match any sequence'; $txt['result_summary'] = 'Show/hide result summary'; $txt['result_generated'] = 'Results generated using '; $txt['zillarank'] = 'ZillaRank'; $txt['search_entireforum'] = 'Entire Forum'; $txt['search_thisbrd'] = 'This board'; $txt['search_thistopic'] = 'This topic'; $txt['search_members'] = 'Members'; $txt['search_entiresite'] = 'Entire Site'; $txt['search_view_all'] = 'View all'; $txt['search_match_criteria'] = 'posts in this topic that match your search criteria'; $txt['search_go_to_top'] = 'Go to Top'; $txt['search_go_to_top_single'] = 'Top'; //END DC SMF Search Text Strings" is appearing at the top of every page. I've searched through every updated php today but I can't find where that text is anywhere.

Your help would be gratefully welcomed. Thanks.
