Hello Everyone,
I believe there has been some disscussion on this topic or similar post on the forums some time ago.
Here’s the proposed plan. We move the search code into a plugin and then add some new events:
OnWebSearch
OnManagerSearch
OnLiveWebSearch // TP4 only
OnLiveManagerSearch // TP4 only
These events will trigger plugins to perform searches on either the website or the manager. The plugin would then format the result and send it back to the parser.
These new events will open up the system to support customized searches. This means that you can choose to roll your own search engines or include specialized search engines. for example, Search forums, Data banks, system files, etc.
What do you think?
