how do i tweak it?

You don't tweak any Google codes.

Where are you pasting the code? Block type?

Is this just a Google search engine or AdSense?

Totally ignore my reply.. I didn't realise this was a work in progress topic

You seem to be missing quite a bit of code for your search box.  You might try creating a new box and see if you get the entire code.  I just made one and here's what I get for the search box:

<!-- SiteSearch Google -->
<form method="get" action="http://www.yoursite.com/index.php?page=5" target="_top">
<table border="0" bgcolor="#ffffff">
<tr><td nowrap="nowrap" valign="top" align="left" height="32">

<img src="http://www.google.com/logos/Logo_25wht.gif" border="0" alt="Google" align="middle"></img>
</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap">
<input type="hidden" name="domains" value="www.yoursite.com"></input>
<label for="sbi" style="display: none">Enter your search terms</label>
<input type="text" name="q" size="31" maxlength="255" value="" id="sbi"></input>
<label for="sbb" style="display: none">Submit search form</label>
<input type="submit" name="sa" value="Search" id="sbb"></input>
</td></tr>
<tr>
<td>&nbsp;</td>
<td nowrap="nowrap">
<table>
<tr>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="" checked id="ss0"></input>
<label for="ss0" title="Search the Web"><font size="-1" color="#000000">Web</font></label></td>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.yoursite.com" id="ss1"></input>
<label for="ss1" title="Search www.yoursite.com"><font size="-1" color="#000000">www.yoursite.com</font></label></td>
</tr>
</table>

 i noticed this line is there when i  enable Google WebSearch + SiteSearch.

Code Select Expand

<input type="hidden" name="domains" value="www.yoursite.com"></input>

my problem is, when users use the "Search this site" option, it only searches from articles within the site, and does not search the forums.

Now what i want to do is enable the Google web search only, without the site search.

Anybody who tried tweaking it without this code?

Code Select Expand

<input type="hidden" name="domains" value="www.yoursite.com"></input>

coz this code (above) is not there when i use the Google web search only. TIA

[bloodlust]

That's weird.  It searches forum posts on my site. 

Yeah.. I don't see the code either when doing Web Search only option.

You could try this:

1: Follow my directions Here for getting the search results to show up in your site.  Make sure to use the Google WebSearch + Site Search option.

2: In your Search Box Code:

Find this:

Code Select Expand


<tr>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="" checked id="ss0"></input>
<label for="ss0" title="Search the Web"><font size="-1" color="#000000">Web</font></label></td>
<td>
<input type="radio" name="sitesearch" value="www.yoursite.com" id="ss1"></input>
<label for="ss1" title="Search www.yoursite.com"><font size="-1" color="#000000">www.yoursite.com</font></label></td>
</tr>

Replace with this:

Code Select Expand


<tr>
<td>
<input type="hidden" name="sitesearch" value="" checked id="ss0"></input>
&nbsp;
<td>
<input type="hidden" name="sitesearch" value="www.yoursite.com" id="ss1"></input>
&nbsp;</td>
</tr>


This will make Web Search checked by default (which it is already unless you change it at the beginning), and hide the radio buttons and labels so your visitors can't select Site Search.

Of course make sure to replace "www.yoursite.com" with your site's URL
