A very simple to use and enhanced search mambot for Joomla, it returns content items based on the relevance of the search term a user enters to an article.
The following content is included in the search:
Content
Static Pages
Static Pages with no menu (can be disabled)
The search mambot allows you to select content you do not want to be displayed, you can disable sections, categories or just individual articles.
Note: to use this search mambot you are required to run some SQL code on your database by your SQL manager software such as phpmyadmin. Always backup your database before performing any actions on it.
Instructions:
Install the mambot just like any other mambot. Once installed it is best to disable the default Content Search mambot and then enable this mambot.
Once enabled you can use the mambot parameters in its configuration screen to alter the results returned. Your options are:
Search Limit: the maximum amount of results to be returned
Static Content NonMenu: show static content without menu links
Ignore Sections: enter the id's of the sections to be ignored, separate multiple entries by a comma
Ignore Categories: enter the id's of the categories to be ignored, separate multiple entries by a comma
Ignore Articles: enter the id's of the articles to be ignored, separate multiple entries by a comma
The following SQL code is required to be run on your Joomla database to enable the search mambot to work:
ALTER TABLE `#__content` ADD FULLTEXT (`title`)
ALTER TABLE `#__content` ADD FULLTEXT (`introtext`)
ALTER TABLE `#__content` ADD FULLTEXT (`fulltext`)
ALTER TABLE `#__content` ADD FULLTEXT (`metakey`)
ALTER TABLE `#__content` ADD FULLTEXT (`metadesc`)
Replace #_ with the name of your Joomla tables, i.e:
ALTER TABLE `jos_content` ADD FULLTEXT (`metadesc`)
