Site search

uCoz Web Service has its own Site search.

You do not have to install this module. It is installed by default and it is a required module.
Attention: it is impossible to deinstall the Site Search module!

Though it is possible to set it up or not to use it at all.

You can select the modules to search in:


We would like to draw your attention to the setting

Supplement search results by tags with the results of site search:
If the checkbox is tagged, the site search results will be shown after the search results by tags.
Here is how the site search results will look for the request: CINEMA

And this is the way the search results by the tag CINEMA will look (You will see them in addition with site search results).

Where the first result is the search result by the tag CINEMA. And the rest of he results are site search results for the request CINEMA.
(This is an example with the default settings of Appearance of entries. "Entry brief description" in the modules is also disabled)


It is not difficult to distinguish the search results by the tag from the site search results. The appearance of the site search entries is the following: module name + the date (day-month-year the time of adding the entry).

The appearance of the search entries by the tag is the following: module name + the title of the module category (nesting depth of an entry. The code $ENTRY_DEPTH$ is responsible for that)+the date when the entry was added (day.month.year).

It is also possible to distinguish the search results by the tag from the site search results with a help of the URL of the request:

The appearance of the request URL of the site search results is the following: http://siteaddress/search/?q=
The appearance of the request URL of the search results by the tag is the following: http://siteaddress/search/

If the checkbox “Supplement search results by tags with the results of site search:” is not tagged:
the search by tag will show the results for the request of this tag only. And the site search will show the results on the search requests only.

Site search module has design customization feature.

Search page – will help you to customize the design of the page with the results of the site search and the search by tags.
Appearance of entries – will help you to customize the appearance of search results entries.

Sitemap

Sitemap is generated automatically on each website now. Users do not have to create it any more. Sitemap files are updated automatically, approximately once a day (depends on how often the website is updated). URLs of Sitemap files are written in the default robots.txt file, which we advise not to change.
You can get URLs of the Sitemap in Control panel->Site search
Note on search forms: each site module has codes $SEARCH_FORM$ and $MODULE_SEARCH_FORM$
It means that either the form for the indexed search on the whole website ($SEARCH_FORM$) or form to search entries of a module ($MODULE_SEARCH_FORM$) can be embedded into the template of the modules. Of course, both forms can be used simultaneously in order to search on the whole website or to search entries of a certain module.

Addition: on the websites with uID login, uNet users' bar has a site search form: Userbar->Control->Site search

Note:
  • The new entries are indexed within 10 days.
  • The entries that are deleted from the website, disappear from the search results within 14 days
  • In order to re-index the entries in the catalog manually, you need to tag the checkbox “Entry date:“ and Save without making any other changes.

sachtructuyen, I am not quite sure I understand what you are talking about. Anyway, you can go to Control panel->Site search->Module settings and change Maximum number of characters in results description, Maximum total number of search results, Number of entries per page here (if that is what you need) If not - be more specific, please

NOT Maximum total number of search results
and NOT Maximum number of characters in results description:

It's Maximum characters you can type in Seach Box.

For example, my entry name has 50 characters, i can't type it's full name in seach box.

Hello, I have some doubts about the search engine UcoZ.
1 - Despite already having seen the forum on the issue of delay of indexing, I wonder why my site search only the 1st file I posted?

2 - How long on average it takes to index the site?

3 - if you can test, go http://gtafiles.at.ua/

4 - Search for "GTA" because everyone has this word posts

Thank you for your attention! biggrin

GtaFiles, I have checked your web site's search for GTA as you requested. Here are the results I had no problems using Search.
If I misunderstood you or you still face problems of some kind, please, specify them

Krusteff, that means that there was no thread or name found by the requested name , so you are or typing the name of the thread wrong or just does not have a thread with that name

Krusteff, i know what to find , don't worry , and yes i see your problem i suggest you to wait for natashko or sunny both of them have more acces to solve these kind of problems , your search engine just does not find the things you want to search , make sure that you use
Code
$SEARCH_FORM$
code that is the only tip that i can give you for now

Krusteff, no need to worry. We have checked your website. You need to wait. It means that your website hasn't been indexed by robots. (or the new entries were added after the indexation) It will be possible to find entries with the help of "Search" after the next indexation. The indexation is performed once in 4 days.
