I’ve been pecking away at forums, google, and any other resources I can get my hands on to try and figure out how to alter the config file to get it to support searching my own tables. I’m posting here as a last ditch effort to see if anyone can shed some light on this for me.
Here’s the scenario:
I have a module that I created that allows me to enter links to external sites that have news articles on a specific industry. Each one goes into a news table. There are, essentially, columns for the title, the url and a brief description.
I have a snippet that outputs the top 5 most recent into a small area of the site’s home page. I also have an archive page that lists ALL of them. But there are like 20 new links/week. So, clearly I need a search tool that allows me to search the brief description and title columns.
Can anyone assist in the use of AjaxSearch for something like this? OR, alternatively, recommend that it’d just be easier to code a quick search form that looks for matches in those two columns? This almost seems like a no-brainer...I may just be too close to it.
Thoughts anyone?
Thanks in advance!
