Search Mambot for CommunityBuilder Fields
Configurable standard search mambot for the CommunityBuilder.
All matched user profiles together with its matches in the profile fields are listed in the Joomla or Mambo standard/advanced search results list.
Among other useful things you can set up with help of the Mambot parameters the following:
- Linked title format
- Optional displaying of the Avatar in the search result records
- To be searched profile fields
- Blacklist of searched/displayed fields
- Display of additional fields in the search result records
Simply install it as a new Mambot. After publishing you can access the mambot with the joomla standard search: yoursite/index.php?option=com_search
The plugin was tested with Joomla 1.0.13 CB 1.1 PHP 5.2.5 MySQL 5.0.26 and JaclPlus but it should also work in other enviroments without any problems.

Changelog:
* 27.03.2008 Adding blacklist and title format ability
* 03.04.2008 Display optional Avatar Image and adding various new options for advanced sorting/displaying
* 06.04.2008 Bug fix WHERE clause

Verry usefull by jannek, July 11, 2008

Thanks a lot for this useful plugin. I wondered, why it is not listet at the Home of CB joomlapolis.org.

One strange things occured in my jooomla 1.0.15 & CB 1.1 installation. Even though I put the name, lastname and firstname on the blacklist, they where searched through. They did not appear in the search result list but where obviously searched.

After I commented Line 113 out: '$colnames[] = "u.name";' the search really ignored the names.

But still I think, this is a verry usefull plugin, that hopefully will be further developed.

This plugin is a must have in any Joomla/CB powered social network.

It lacks, in my opinion, further styling options (CSS is poorly implemented) and the ability to toggle the list ordering number off. In most cases it is not needed and causes a visual quirk if an avatar is shown.


Owner's reply:
The list ordering number cannot be switched off because it's a part of the joomla core and can not be affected via searach mambot interface.

What do you mean with styling options? This option is also limited by the framework because joomla filters out html styling tags from the search results.

Easy install and up and running. Maybe a future release might include the ability to have the avatar of profiles show up in the search results.

Thanks for the contribution!


Owner's reply:
With Version 1.2 it's now also possible to display the avatar in the search results too. For upgrading uninstall the old cb_fields.searchbot and install the new one. Have fun...
