Title: integrated search
Post by: Geoffrey Makstutis on August 08, 2005, 09:11:03 AM

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has (or knows of) a mambot that will allow you to search SMF forums from within the main Mambo search function? I noted that the SMF-Bridge project has just released a mambo to do this. I've had a look at it, but (not being a very advanced PHP/Mambo coder) I couldn't see what would be needed to make it work for Mambo-SMF.

Anyone willing to take up the gauntlet?

Geoffrey,

There's probably some restrictions on the code, because I don't see why it wouldn't work. I can check that when I get a chance. It should be fairly easy.

Here's the file's URL: http://mamboforge.net/frs/download.php/6942/smf.search.zip

This is the readme that comes with the file

Code:

IMPORTANT! THE INDEX.PHP FOR YOUR MAMBO TEMPLATE MUST BE MODIFIED!

The SMF bridge instructions tell you to add this code immediately above </head>:

global $sc, $context;

if (!defined('SMF')){
require ("administrator/components/com_smf/config.smf.php");
require_once ($smf_path."/SSI.php");
}

$sc = &$context['session_id'];

You need to change this code to the following:

global $sc, $context;

if (!defined('SMF')){
require ("administrator/components/com_smf/config.smf.php");
require ($smf_path . "/Settings.php");
require_once ($smf_path."/SSI.php");
}

$sc = &$context['session_id'];

Simply add the missing line between the require statements.

If you don't do this, your site will not function!

I attempted this with Latest MamboHacks bridge and Latest Mambo. The bot DID NOT WORK. cowboy, post your thoughts or maybe post your working version ;D please. This is a heavily anticipated feature...at least by me

err I didnt realized that MamboHacks SMF bridge modifieds mambo/index.php and not mambo/templates/templatename/index.php. This is better actually since it will work on any template you have. To make smf searchbot work on your site using Mambohacks.com bridge add this code to your mambo/index.php:

Code:

if (file_exists($smf_path."/Settings.php"))
require ($smf_path . "/Settings.php");

right after

Code:

if (file_exists($smf_path."/SSI.php"))
require_once ($smf_path."/SSI.php");[

This should be around line 28 under //MAMBOHACKS.COM category. Make sure you do this after you patch your index.php file via bridge's backend component.
This is tested on Mambo 4.5.2.3 with the latest bridge. Take care.

d3vlabs,

Nice job, it worked.

It just return to many result, like 1000+ for me. It still needs to implement result paging.

Is there any possibility to make this bot to work without bridge?

I can not find the code you said....What I added is below

Code:

<?php
global $sc, $context, $settings;

if (!defined('SMF')){
// Get the configuration. This will tell Mambo where SMF is, and some integration settings
$database->setQuery("
SELECT `variable`, `value1`
FROM #__smf_config
");
$variables = $database->loadAssocList();

foreach ($variables as $variable){
$variable_name = $variable['variable'];
$$variable_name = $variable['value1'];
}
require ($smf_path."/SSI.php");
}

$sc = &$context['session_id'];
$_SESSION['USER_AGENT'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'];

mysql_select_db($mosConfig_db);

echo '
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript" src="', $settings['default_theme_url'], '/script.js?beta4"></script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"><![CDATA[
var smf_theme_url = "', $settings['theme_url'], '";
var smf_images_url = "', $settings['images_url'], '";
var smf_scripturl = "', $scripturl, '";
var smf_session_id = "', $context['session_id'], '";
// ]]></script>';

echo '
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['theme_url'], '/style.css?rc1" />
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="', $settings['default_theme_url'], '/print.css?beta4" media="print" />
<link rel="help" href="', $scripturl, '?action=help" target="_blank" />
<link rel="search" href="' . $scripturl . '?action=search" />
<link rel="contents" href="', $scripturl, '" />';
?>

So I don't know where to change. If possilbe, could you tell me ?
I think the version of bridge is different. Mine is 1.1.4

Thanks !
