"Generate Search Box purpose"
|
I have some questions regarding the Generate Search Box section of Fatbomb 2.0. 1. When I click the generate button, it puts in the skin and value but the url is always domain.com. Am I supposed to manually change that each time or do I have a config setting I need to change? 2. What is the Test button for? If it is for a keyword search, do I need to alter the url for the form action first? Whenever I click it, it takes me to the url with domain.com in it. So not sure what the Test button is for! Thanks, Jon

>1. When I click the generate button, it puts in the skin and >value but the url is always domain.com.I'm not sure how it could happen. Normally it should be your domain name there. The easiest way to fix it is to: 1. Download the file 'fatbomb/data/config.dat'. 2. Find the line which looks like $data->{SCRIPT_URL} = 'http://domain.com/cgi-bin/fatbomb/fatbomb.cgi'; and remove it or specify the correct domain name. 3. Upload 'config.dat' back. Kirill |

>Thanks Kirill. I have made that edit and now in the Generate >Search Box section it shows the correct url. However, when I >try the test button, I get "The page cannot be displayed." > >Any ideas? Does search itself work? You may check it in the "Search" tab in the Admin area. What is the URL of the page that "cannot be displayed"? Kirill |

Yes, found the solution now! Thanks Krilli for your suggestion to change the config.dat file. I edited the filename to my own site and that cured part of it. But the Test button didn't work. Why? Because I missed an "l" off part of my domain name. :| All is working now and I look forward to getting fat on adsense revenue. That is if Google is accepting of these kind of pages. Incidentely, if I want to ask search engine kind of questions and stuff about Fatbomb and Google adsense etc where do I do it? Is it the Fatty forum or the Madbombers forum? Or not on this site? Thanks for all the support. Jon |
