Hello!
Our forum is getting a lot of guests but almost no one registers (we already got 40k views, 16 members). I saw that some people are searching in the search page. Is it possible to see in a log what they're searching for? Then i could make a post related to that and they will find what they need the next time.
Thanks,
Jonas
P.S. Smf is great!

As far as I know, there is no logging available for "search"..
What is available can be found in C-panel => Maintanace => Logs

Check the content of smf_log_search_subjects table, maybe stuff of interest in there.
Export the table and open it in notepad++

Just a question. I just tried searching something myself but it hasn't been added... How can i fix that?
Thanks

It is not meant to be a real log of all searches as far as I know, and "fixing" that would probably not be a good idea. But you can still use the log to get an idea of what is being searched for.
