googleSearch component
This component allows you to add Google Adsense Search to your Joomla site. The search results are displayed RIGHT INSIDE your Joomla page!

No more popup page. No more diversion to other pages.

You can see a live demo by clicking the demo link above.

Latest Update
=============
v1.0.10 (for Joomla 1.0) and v1.5.10 (for Joomla 1.5)
Released June 30, 2008

Bug Fix. If you set the option "Display search form in component" to No, sometimes the search form will not display in the googleSearch module too. The bug has been fixed. Thanks to Scott for reporting the bug.

Google Ads
==========
This component is for displaying of Google Search in your Joomla site. If you want to display Google Ads, use the following plugin that I've written - the "googleAds" plugin:
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,5022/Itemid,35/

Google Search Module
====================
You might also want to complement this with the googleSearch module:
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,4935/Itemid,35/

The module allows you to add an additional Google search box as a module. This means that you can place the search form in any module position you like. When the user clicks the search button, the search result will be displayed in your Joomla main body by the googleSearch component.

Key Features
============
- This is a component, not a module. This means the search result resides directly in your Joomla main body!

- Works with Joomla 1.0 and 1.5. Both in native mode.

- Gives you many options to customize the google search to suit your needs e.g. setting of foreground / background color, input of channel, default search by web or your domain, etc.


How to install
==============
Set up is as easy as 1-2-3:
1. Install the component
2. Enter your Google Adsense ID
3. Enter your desired width of the search result

That's all you need to get started! You'll now have Google Search right inside your Joomla page!

For advanced settings, please refer to Customizing the Component.


Note: For those who need to change the width of the search result (default is 600px), please download the latest version. Set the desired width (e.g. 500px) in the second item of the configuration options. Note that Google seems to set the minimum width of the search result to be 500px. Even if you set the width to 360px, Google will return the result at 500px.

Very snazzy! Me like :) by cachapoal, June 6, 2008
This component, combined with the googleSearch module from the same developer, is very cool indeed. Easy to install, use and the results appear inside your website .... very smooth. Thanks KKSOU!!


Top notch product, top notch developer! by kray, May 27, 2008
Very easy to install and setup. Team it up with the GoogleSearch module and you have a winning combo.

I had a few issues right at the start (Because of my country setting) and kksou was very kind and helped me figure out everything.

We need more Joomla! developers like this!

This component is exactly what I needed, but it was even better to see that there is available a module that works together and the search results are displayed RIGHT INSIDE your Joomla page!
All this for FREE!

Awesome Component !!! by OPEN365, May 19, 2008
1 of 1 people find this review helpful:
This is now officially one of the hottest search based components for Joomla. In five minutes I setup a search box module and a full featured customizable Google search component. To top it off I can even make money through Google adsense from searches taking place on my site. How long did it take to add my Google adsense account to this component? 1 sec, because all I had to do was paste my Google adsense code in a field and bam! Ready to go!

Thank you kksou! You are awesome! I emailed this guy on Friday night telling him that the Google search component was great but that if he added a module based search box that connected to the component that would be awesome. He replies by telling me he would jump on that right away and have it done by Sunday night. Sure enough it's now Sunday night and my search module and component are already setup and ready to go! Great job, this is my first review, I felt compelled to write it. Best of all this a great working product!

There is No possibility to access configuration page!


Owner's reply:
Some of you have encountered the following error: "404 - An error has occurred: Component Not Found" on some of the servers.



Please download the latest update - v1.02 (for J1.0) and v1.52 (for J1.5).



The update will fix the problem.



The update will also fix the problem you have mentioned (i.e. configuration page did not appear).



Regards,
