There are some bugs in the SMF search in 1.1 RC2. These will be fixed in RC3 which is being released very soon

exciting

And hard work for you given the number of mods and tweaks you have set up !

By the way where has the search button gone from the button bar?

you said it - going to be many  hours of work and testing..

oops - i thought i was removing something redundant because of the search magnifying glass button at top which does same thing - but i realized you are probably going to tell me that some of you collapse the top info panel and so dont see it.. i guessi need to put back the search tab.

Oh, at last the search function will work? Cool! 

I didn't even notice the button wasn't there, i have a custom search defined in opera, for DC

now that there is a search plugin for firefox. your opera custom search would look cool beside it.
so, how about uploading it to DC?

Sorry, but i have no idea on how to do it, i just opened the search page, right-clicked the search field and selected "create search"

Much easier than making a moz custom search plugin -- so easy, it doesn't warrant a link Maybe a little Opera icon and a blurb that says "If you're using Opera, as everyone should be, just right click in the search box and select 'Create Search'"

ok, i see. i'm not an Opera user. but from the method you described, it sounds much like Firefox's Smart Keywords.

[jgpaiva]

lanux: it is, but as opera's search is application-wide, when you add a new search, you can add a "smart keyword" for it.
