Hi. I found many questions and answers for the s5 search, but none of them seem to answer my question.
1) I did a straight joomla install without the sample data.
2) Then I added the City Portal template.
3) Now I added the mod_s5_search module and enabled it.
4) I put Google and Yahoo in the right parameters and they work great.
5) Under button 1 though, I put "City of Sparta" which is the website this module and template is loaded on. So the attached picture is is what I get.
How do I set up button one (or "search", or "search1" -- not sure what to call it) to search my website?
I cannot find a <position> anywhere in the "mod_s5_search.xml" that is in the module. I added the <postion> for "search1" in and nothing happened.
I also thought about copying the "google.php" page from the "s5 search" folder and renaming it "search1.php" with the appropriate edits (if I can figure them out). Then changing the "mod_s5_search.xml" button 1 as needed. That just seems to complicated. I thought this was supposed to be easy?
All in all, I would have used siteshaper to do all of this for me, but it couldn't connect to my sql database. I even used the alternate siteshaper someone suggested with installing joomla 1st, etc. Neither way worked.
Kind of a frustrating day so far. At least the google and yahoo buttons work!
