Search.php isn't directed right...

[Dasher]

instead of going tp url/forum/search.php it goes to url/search.php How do I change it. Also, it has a non english name, I need to change that too.

Is this in your header? If so then it means your header isn't on the default search option and is instead on http://yoururl.com/search.php, just open overall_header.html and find:

{L_SEARCH}

and then change the whole line it's on (just copy the FAQ line and only change the distinct values as im not sure which style your using, therefore I cannot tell you them)

<a href="{U_SEARCH}">{L_SEARCH}</a>

In the a href box do I put the search url? I couldn't find the {U_Search} in the header

By default phpBB knows that {U_SEARCH} is related to "search.php" and it automatically grabs your board's URL then places the search.php at the end 😉 It's all in the functions file 🙂

For example (taken directly from includes/functions.php):

'U_SEARCH'				=> append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}search.$phpEx"),

That's telling it to grab the root path of the phpBB then add search with the .php file extension on the end 😉

I changed the root path in the installation to url/forum...

Then what I gave you above should work perfectly :great:

 

[Dasher]

I can't find it.. I did the find in Firefox.

 

[Dasher]

My overall header is blank....
Done converting!

 

[Nathan]

What do you mean it's blank? You've done converting what?

It sounded like where you script path is in phpbb configuration in the ACP. If you fixed it..
