Install the plugin using the Plugin Manager and the download URL above, which points to latest version of the plugin. Refer to Plugins on how to install plugins manually.

The selectsearch plugin is a “non-fancy” copy of the fancysearch plugin. It is possible to define a list of namespaces in the plugin config (via the config manager) from which the user can choose when doing a search in the wiki. The results will be restricted to the chosen namespace.

To use the Plugin you have to include the searchbox in your template:

$selectsearch = plugin_load('action', 'selectsearch');
  if (!is_null($selectsearch)) {
      $selectsearch->tpl_searchform();
  } else {
      tpl_searchform();
  }

In the configuration manager you can define a list of namespaces to be selected by the user when doing a search.

The syntax for the option is the:name:space>Text to display in dropdown

The options are comma seperated. For having an option to search the whole wiki, you have to add an empty namespace like this: >whole wiki</tt

The defalut value gives a good impression how this works:

$conf['searchnamespaces'] = ">All pages,portfolio>Portfolio,hilfe>Help";
