Re: dnnSearch on 4.5.2

sorry, Skinning is not my primary field of expertise. I can manage most issues I encounter myself, but often that is not sufficient for instructing others...

Cheers from Germany,

Re: dnnSearch on 4.5.2

Now that I have solved the skinning problem, I would like to test if it works...
Does any of you manage to make it working ???

I must modify the Adsense ID in the /admin/Skins/App_LocalResources/Search.ascx.resx file, correct ???
But should I change something else ? If I do a search on the web with the tool, I do not see any adsense showing. Strange. Of course, I have my own account, I have registered, and everything is correct (module adsense is shown correctly on the home page). But search seems to be problematic. Here is the code I have in my Search.ascx.resx file:

<value>http://www.google.com/custom?q=[TEXT]&sa=Search&client=xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx&forid=1&ie=ISO-8859-1&oe=ISO-8859-1&cof=GALT%3A%23008000%3BGL%3A1%3BDIV%3A%23336699%3BVLC%3A663399%3BAH%3Acenter%3BBGC%3AFFFFFF%3BLBGC%3A336699%3BALC%3A0000FF%3BLC%3A0000FF%3BT%3A000000%3BGFNT%3A0000FF%3BGIMP%3A0000FF%3BFORID%3A1&hl=en&sitesearch=[DOMAIN]</value>
</data>

I have seen on John Mitchel forum that it is a little bit different:
http://www.snapsis.com/DotNetNuke/Support/tabid/560/forumid/15/postid/5937/view/topic/tpage/1/Default.aspx
Seems like the amp; should not be there.
What is the right one ???

Re: dnnSearch on 4.5.2

I used the default that was installed with DNN 4.5.5 and it works well with my adsense for search views and clicks getting registered.

QUESTION: Currently I have showWeb, and useWebforSite both true... showSite is false.

The search will use google to only search my site, but it opens up the search in a new window.

Is there a way for the google search results to open inside a module on my portal?

I saw reference to using an iframe somehow, but wasn't sure how this was accomplished...

Thanks

WEB search is using Google.
SITE serach is not using Google, but the DNN core search.
If I am wrong, please correct me.
