Search Page

Just a suggestion

I was just looking at the search page and thought that it would be a nice idea to have a text box where users could create a page, as well as search for one. Kind of make this a multi-purpose page.

Search: (works as normal)
Create New Page: (Creates a new article in the default wiki forum with the name entered)

I could then make a link to this page for my users to go to if they ever wanted to create a new page

I have added a message at the top of the search results page. If the article doesn't exist and you have appropriate permission, it gives you the option to create the article there. Otherwise, one could just use the link in the wiki dropdown to create a new page.

I have also added a wiki search to the vBulletin search dropdown.

Excellent, thanks.

In regards to the drop down menu, It never installed in my Template, do you have the part of the code so that I can install it manually?

You need to add the navbar template hooks to your style. I think all you would have to do is compare your style with the default style (I know there is an AdminCP option to do this but I forget where), and look for the missing $template_hook variables.

The only ones missing were
$template_hook[navbar_buttons_left]
$template_hook[navbar_buttons_right]

which I have now put in, but no difference

You had put the template hooks in the search dropdown menu. The correct place was in the row of buttons which in your style had been in the header template. I fixed this for you, but you will have to modify your templates to make it match your site's style correctly. I think you want the vault_general_menu template.
