Search Module to search only specific nodes?
Jane S. - March 7, 2008 - 15:16
Can anyone point me to a Search Module that will permit me to control what node(s) it searches? I want to place it in a block inside the content.
However, I still want to keep the Drupal search for the whole site.
I've tried Dynosearch, I like it but I'm not sure if I can have it search only node(s) I want it to. Am I missing something?
Any ideas?
Many thanks!
For searching specific content types
Use Views. Under filters select Node: Title to get a search box and expose it.
Set other filters as necessary (eg Node Published, Node Type, etc)
Check this
Relevant Content module- http://drupal.org/project/relevant_content
This module provides blocks based on enabled content types. These blocks give the user a list of nodes which it considers most relevant based on the current page. It achieves this by finding other nodes which are of the same type and have the most similar terms associated.
Search Type module--- http://drupal.org/project/search_type
Adds a type selector to search blocks to limit searches by content type or to search users. The selector appears only for users with the "use advanced search" permission.
Restricted Search module-- http://drupal.org/project/search_block
Similar By Terms module--- http://drupal.org/project/similarterms
Taxonomy Search module---- http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_search
