[Pro] Simple Site Search and CMS

Can the Simple Site Search search CMS content?

I not, how would I go about implementing a search function for WebYep CMS content?

Basically, I’m looking at ideas for our future animal shelter’s site. We’d like to post a pic of the animal with a description, and the best way I figured to keep updating this is with a CMS system.

I’d also like visitors to be able to search the animals.

Thanks…

Can the Simple Site Search search CMS content?

No! Simple Site Search does it indexing at publish time so the CMS content doesn’t exist to it.

There are various Site Search scripts that will trawl your site and create a searchable record for you but you generally have to remember to instigate a recrawl periodically.

One that I have used is from Fluid Dynamics http://www.xav.com/scripts/search/

But there are loads out there.

Yeah. I kind of knew the answer before I asked it. :wink:

But, sometimes I overlook the simple answers.

I’ll check out the link and do some script hunting.

Thanks.

Hi Bob,

we have had a list in the past, regarding the sphider search engine I use for my webyep contents. Maybe worth to follow this?

Thanks, Thomas.

That thread is enough to make my head explode!

I’m just trying to gather the best way to do something on a future site. I know everything can’t be as easy as an action all the time, but I need something at least understandably easy for me to implement.
