Hi
I need an new search action, in addition to the advanced search, search etc. However, I am really lost on how to "start" making this. I was thinking about adding an user_search.tpl to my design/templates/content folder. However, this did not work, i.e this link does not work:
<a href={"/content/user_search/"|ezurl}>{"User search"|i18n("design/jilo/layout")}</a>
Does anybody here have any tips?
CheersTore

Hi,
This is not a simple task, you need to make a extension and add module "user_search".You need to write something like following in your module.php:
<pre> $ViewList['user_search'] = array( 'functions' => array( 'read' ), 'default_navigation_part' => 'ezcontentnavigationpart', 'script' => 'usersearch.php', 'params' => array( ), 'unordered_params' => array( 'offset' => 'Offset' ) );</pre>
then you need to write usersearch.php and usersearch.tpl.

Thanks for help, think I will instead make an "misc" content class with only a name. Then make an content object of that class, and then in the node override template make an customized advanced search functionality. Since that was basically what I wanted.
