Hi,

In a 3.10.1 version I only use the simple search (search.tpl) and not advancedsearch.

I'm using this template:

design/plain_site/templates/content/search.tpl

witch is a customiszed copy of the template used by default (design/base/templates/content/search.tpl)

I don't understand how does work this template (or the search system) because I can delete this part of the template:

  3 {section show=$use_template_search}
  4     {set page_limit=10}
  5     {set search=fetch(content,search,
  6                       hash(text,$search_text,
  7                            section_id,$search_section_id,
  8                            subtree_array,$search_subtree_array,
  9                            sort_by,array('modified',false()),
 10                            class_id, ezini('ObjetsRecherches', 'ClassesIncluses', 'recherche.ini'),
 11                            offset,$view_parameters.offset,
 12                            limit,$page_limit))}
 13     {set search_result=$search['SearchResult']}
 14     {set search_count=$search['SearchCount']}
 15     {set stop_word_array=$search['StopWordArray']}
 16     {set search_data=$search}
 17 {/section}

...the search system is still working.

The only code nedeed in this template to get results is:

1 {section name=SearchResult loop=$search_result show=$search_result sequence=array(bglight,bgdark)}
2                {node_view_gui view=line sequence=$:sequence use_url_translation=$use_url_translation content_node=$:item}<br />
3{/section}

But in this case, where do the values of $search_result come from ?

There is an ini setting that drives the value of $use_template_search.

When false, the php code of the view executes the search, and the template only displays results.
Otherwise, it is up to the template to do everything.
This has the benefit of allowing extra parameters to be added to searches (eg. for drill-down searches, facets) handling them completely in template code.

Thanks a lot Gaetano,

The setting is «SearchViewHandling» in site.ini and has to be set to «template»
