DotNetNuke Version: 5.6.0 Active Forums Version: 4.3.3 Here is a quick way using Active Social that you can add a quick forum search box as module to your site. All you need to do is create a custom view in Active Social with the following code and then add it to a page. You will need to update the URL based upon your site. Easy thing to do would be to go to your forum search page, enter the word test then click search. Copy everything in the URL from the end of your domain name to "q/" then replace that section in the code snippet below.

<script type="text/javascript"> function doAFSearch(){ var q = document.getElementById('txtAFSearch').value; q = encodeURIComponent(q); window.location.href='/community/forums/tabid/68/afv/search/q/' + q + '/default.aspx'; }; </script> <input type="text" id="txtAFSearch" value="" onkeydown="if(event.keyCode == 13){doAFSearch(); return false;}" /> <input type="button" id="btnAFSearch" value="Search" onclick="doAFSearch(); return false;" />

I wonder if I can add a field of date to the "search" or by authors. Thanks, V--
