Yeah, how bout' someone that knows more about it tell me!
lmao! I'm hoping people that are good with these can look over it and either change it or tell me what to change.
Though, all it really is is using JustDave's Search Hack, and ExtremeBikini's Hover over and get topic..... So, if those are both used here, I can't imagine it's that many extra queries.
Yeah, you have to copy and paste the contents of your dosearch.php file, and put it in there. Then, you modify that file ....
I explained it in the instructions, but may have not been clear.
Should I explain more?
(Basically, you create dosearchlatest.php by modifying dosearch.php, but dosearch.php is left intact and original, so technically you're adding files and really only touch the ubbt code by changing the registerednav template.)
You might want to include that in your instructions and leave out the zero length file
I figured out what you were trying to do in the template and I modified your template to use the existing variables in the dosearch.php file (so there is no need to edit the dosearch.php).
I created a copy of dosearch.php and named it dabuzz.php because I thought I might have to change the way dosearch.php works, but it wasn't necessary. The only advantage I have with the new file is calling the new template.
You might be able to reduce this hack to just a template
Did you get this to work with an unhacked copy of dosearch.php, just renamed ?
Cause, I just tried it and didn't get it to work.
I guess I'm just unclear about how to get this down to just the template.... I really just played around with JustDaves YASM and ExtremeBikini's mod, so I don't know that I completely get what it's doing. lol. What I did was get it to work, and I was happy with that. LOL. But, if you've got an easier way please help!
(Also, the instructions did include the bit about copy/pasting into the blank file....)
I got it up and running ... nice one thanks. I followed your instructions and copied the entire file over. I already had the yasm installed so had to use partial strings to locate some replace strings.
