Title: Search box?
Post by: Shades on October 10, 2020, 11:33:22 am

How can I make the top "default" search box (drop down) where it searches the forum or the classifieds like SMF has on their site for Modifications and Themes etc.,?

That would have to be custom code. You would make one dropdown toggle the search function of SMF and the other toogle Search Classifieds.

I have my site set up to default to the classifieds which makes the smf search box useless so I need to change it to search the classifieds and not the forum or maybe for both.

If you only want the classifieds
You would edit index.template.php find the search editor change the form action from
index.php?action=search
To
index.php?action=classifieds;sa=search i belive

This mod can probably be customized to do that
